Place-based Doughnut Design For Business
A half-day workshop to explore how to apply Doughnut Economics to Oxfordshire businesses, in the Oxfordshire context.
Oxford-based Erinch Sahan, Global Business Lead for Doughnut Economics Action Lab, and Siobhann Mansel-Pleydell co-creator of the recent "Oxfordshire Doughnut” are inviting a small group of Oxfordshire business leaders to join us for a Place-based Doughnut Design for Business workshop. Use the sign up form to register your interest in attending and we'll get back to you 👆🏿
This is a brand new workshop especially designed to support businesses to engage collectively with the application of Doughnut Economics in a way that is connected to their local place and communities - roadtest the prototype with us!
At a time when global issues are driving despair, this is an opportunity to imagine, think differently, and regain a sense of agency.
With the Oxfordshire preliminary data portrait of place, aka “Oxfordshire Doughnut", to hand the group will consider Oxfordshire's most pressing local issues in the global context, and which ones our business community has the most potential to affect through business operations.
Come away with transformative ideas for how the Oxfordshire business community can become both regenerative and distributive, by design.
🍩 This workshop is for business leaders at a senior level who can shape both business strategy and relationships with stakeholders in the local community.
🍩 We also have space for representatives of local Government as there is a policy component to this workshop
🍩 Places are limited to 12 to create time and space to really engage with the concepts and generate ideas.
📆 WHEN : Friday 11th April
⏰ TIME: 9.30am-1pm. Arrive no later than 9.30 for a 9.45am start
📍WHERE: Community Works, Oxford. 2 minute walk from Oxford train station

Founder of Make It Good which is dedicated to accelerating regenerative futures. Most recently part of the Oxfordshire Doughnut Project Team. Funded by Oxfordshire County Council and hosted by Aspire, the project seeks to accelerate understanding of Doughnut Economics in application across three core work streams - developing a preliminary data portrait as a springboard for engagement, understanding how to move from impact assessment to doughnut-informed Decision Making Wheel, and to consider how to begin to apply these tools to strategic economic planning in Oxfordshire.

Hi, I've have recently completed my MSc Ecological Economics in Leeds. Since then I have been the Oxfordshire Doughnut Project Data Lead across the Four Lenses for the Preliminary Data Portrait: • Global Ecological Lens: based on planetary boundaries model, downscaling data to county or regional levels and applying and improving on best practice methodologies. • Global Social: designed a data methodology applying material footprinting data to Global Social dimensions (aligned with Sustainable Development Goals) to build a coherent narrative around local consumption and global social impact. • Local Social and Ecological: supervising and producing calculations across all dimensions and their visualisations. Looking forward to see where this doughnut goes and what opportunities for engagement arise from it!
