Building thriving cities fit for the 21st century
November 03, 2020
Powered by Restream https://restream.io/ We need alternative ways of economic thinking to solve our current challenges. Is it possible to include both people’s wellbeing and planetary boundaries whilst striving for a thriving economy? Kate Raworth, the author of Doughnut Economics: 7 ways to think like a 21st century economist will be joining us to discuss the framework's role in shaping circular economy policies and business practices at city level. From Europe to Costa Rica, countries and cities around the world are reaching out to align their development strategies with it. To demonstrate, we will draw upon insights from Amsterdam, a city that recently implemented and published their Doughnut City Portrait during the Covid-19 pandemic.
