Bath City Doughnut Learning Group: Change the Goal (Past)
In this session, we'll be sketching out our alternative, with a little systems thinking, and some practical imagination.
Please Note: This event has now finished and can no longer be joined.
Session 2/9
"No more GDP economy!" we shout.
"Okay... what do you propose?" they shrug.
"The Doughnut!" we cry.
"A what…? Are you okay 👀?"
Fair enough. It's time to get a lot more specific and equipped to articulate. Let's sketch out our alternative, with a little systems thinking, and some practical imagination.

Usual scenario: grab a drink and head upstairs. Bring a pen, and a notebook to lean on in case we're squeezed. Newbies welcome, and please RSVP if you can (mainly so I don't under/overestimate materials).
And if you're staying for the wonderful People Planet Pint straight afterwards, please register here.

My experience revolves around innovation and change practices particularly in the fields of human ressources applied to industry,in the field of training , teaching and in the one of occupationnal integration and citizenship. My actions aim to facilitate organizations transformations taking into account the social and ecological issues.They also have for goal to help people better understand how they work and to find their way.My work is based around sociologic,psychological,neuroscientific and therapeutic approach.I m involved in associations as "the shifters" and "fresque des nouveaux récits" I also work around the part of immersive technology and AI in pedagogical approaches to involve people .I lead a prospective VR project to know our affinity and resistances to change for a sustainable future.This experience could be integrated in transformation approaches integrating donnut methodology. With a member of the DEAL we would like to deploy the Donut approach in areéas of Marseille city. I'm especially interested about #educational systems in the world,#apprenticeship,#erasmus programs,#human ressources,#transformation of organizations,#health care,#immersive learning

I make landscapes for private and public clients, from their design to overseeing their implementation. I reduce waste and use local materials wherever possible and am passionate about habitat creation and increasing biodiversity. I am interested in finding ways to protect soil on building sites and create cultural change so that every decision is focused on nature restoration and biodiversity. I work with community projects wherever possible and would like to bring more of this work into my studio practice.

Carra Santos
Bath, BANES, UK.
I'm an established and creative sustainability professional, equipping visionary leaders, educators and advisors with knowledge and navigation tools to step into their sustainable futures roles, through education, strategy and communication. Over 20+ years, my career in creativity, design and communication has evolved from internationally-acclaimed product innovation and future concepts for world-class events, to creative thinking skills for visionary leadership. My approach is influenced by my career origins in multidisciplinary concept generation and development - tapping into food, fashion, interiors, furniture, exhibition, spatial and urban design - and my personal passion, which is exploring how transformative habits, attitudes, practices, behaviours and relationships can be facilitated by forward-thinking design and communication. I began exploring Doughnut Economics around 2017, attending events from 2019, and becoming a DEAL community member on its launch in 2020. My interest in economics increased during my 2021 'Sustainable Development in Practice' Masters dissertation on narrative framing and communication of sustainability practices to UK business leaders, which touched on the difference between degrowth, growth-agnostic and growth-led perspectives. I started the Doughnut Economics group in Bath, UK in 2022, and and continue to support it and a number of councils, universities and enterprises with local outreach and engagement.
