Communities: Let's Get Started is a collection of tools & stories, launched on 18th May 2023, to apply the ideas of Doughnut Economics to your community, whether at the household, street or neighbourhood scale or connecting as networks for systemic change at the city, region or national scale.
The tool contains over 25 tools and 20 stories - with contributions from people, groups, networks and organisations from around the world - to help you get started with your community in your own unique context.
This meet-up is for anyone interested in the community action with Doughnut Economics, whether your interested to get started, or you're already on your journey of exploring the ideas and tools of Doughnut Economics and their implications in your place.

We look forward to seeing you there!

I am a frustrated person from the situation, currently feeling useless, yet looking for ways to get involved with the cause and make the change. Currently doing a PhD in ecology and evolution of tree species. In an ideal world, I would love to be a wacko scientist, working on totally abstract and theoretical questions. In the world we live in, thrilled to join the community of people wanting for the same change I do, and in turn, work extra hard to help turn the wheal to a cleaner and more sustainable future.

Well-educated European citizen, I do not accept the "business as usual" any longer knowing all solutions are at hand. I feel more and more eco-anxious, and therefore believe it's about time to play a pivotal role now.
