An event in cooperation with Impact Hub Zurich
On November 7th, we invite you to the Global Donut Day—an evening full of exciting insights into the donut economy and the urgently needed system change in Switzerland!
We’ll start at 6:15 PM with an inspiring documentary film, “Outgrow the System,” which explores the transition to a sustainable economic system.
Following the film, there will be a panel discussion featuring experts from politics, business, science, and NGOs, discussing the necessary steps to think beyond economic growth in Switzerland.
Afterward, you can enjoy drinks and food, where you’ll have the opportunity to exchange ideas and make new connections. Whether you’re already part of the movement or just curious about the donut economy, you are warmly invited to engage in the discussion and take action!

About the Film:
While "economy" originally meant "household management" and described the responsible use of resources, today’s economy rapidly consumes our finite natural resources. “Outgrow the System” explores how we can return to an economic approach that sustainably manages our resources. The film presents new economic ideas and practices that challenge traditional assumptions and offer innovative perspectives for production and consumption. It celebrates the creativity and projects worldwide that promote a positive vision and unite social movements, rather than merely resisting dystopias.
