Valencia, Comunitat Valenciana, Spain

I am an entrepreneurial environmental politics graduate who is ready to dedicate my career to system change toward a more regenerative and redistributive economy.       

Germany

I studied economics and started questioning the economic models. This is how I first learned about the donut economy - a new approach which I find very inspiring. I want to help spread the word and make people aware that there are different approaches besides capitalisms out there - more social more sustainable. Less is more and growth is not always the solution for everything. We need to understand to give and let those societies grow which really need it. I'm very much interested in city projects like the one in Amsterdam which apply the donut approach for the first time. Those are projects which really inspire and show that different ways are possible.   

Multicultural individual - as a French-Brazilian who grew up in Asia - with a background in Art and Psychology and language sciences. I am interested in the drivers of  and how they can be impacted, especially in the context of climate change. As my current profession involves delivering insights to a multinational corporation, I understand the power of and in changing perceptions and making ideas more accessible. I am interested in researching realistic and tangible solutions to the current ecological crisis, taking into account the different stakeholders, current and future technologies as well as cultural, environmental and social factors. I am curious to explore how a approach to the problem - with exchange of insights and collaboration between different fields - can help us create/promote environmentally ambitious policies whilst being socially just. I want to understand what actions to inspire are possible at different levels: as an individual, community, company or nation. Don’t hesitate to contact me! I am always very open and happy to discuss anything environment and social-related :)

Nijmegen, The Netherlands

I am an Assistant Professor at the chair group of Economic Theory and Policy at Radboud University. I am co-coordinating the multi-disciplinary hotspot Transformative sustainable change in Action at my institute and lead the Participatory Policy Hub with Sustainable Futures Global. My research focuses on transformations and transformative governance towards post-growth and post-development models. My main empirical focus is West and Central Africa.   Since my first year as a student in economics, I have been struggling with the content of what I learned. I was lucky enough however to study at a University (Lille) with a real pluralist non-mainstream institute (Clersé, gathering heterodox economists and sociologists), and realised how much the assumptions and foundations of the economics field are wicked. Now I am back as an Assistant Professor in an economics department in the Netherlands that is not the usual type and one of my goals being an academic is to contribute to changing the discipline and the way we teach from the inside.  Being part of this action lab is an amazing opportunity for this. Besides, we can see so many changes in society as in academia. However, economics departments are not changing or very slowly in comparison, and it is urgently needed as economists are mainly heard when formulating recommendations. Let’s join forces!    

Berlin, Germany

I’m a Berlin-based consultant that brings a wealth of experience in corporate affairs, organisational culture and   management,  and engagement strategies. My journey has taken me through co-founding and being active in a student business ethics network, several years in the space of global health and business impact model innovation within Big Pharma, experiencing first-hand the joys and challenges of being an intrapreneur and recently working at B Lab Switzerland (a local NGO, part of a global movement to use business as a force for good). Since September 2022, I have started pursuing a more entrepreneurial path as a consultant to be able to fully live my purpose and passion of encouraging people to be true to ourself, our values and take action to co-creating systemic change. I hold a Bachelor degree in International Cultural and Business Studies and a Master degree in Development Economics and Sustainability Management. Having lived, studied and worked in Germany, Canada, Switzerland, Peru and Bolivia, I am experienced in intercultural communications and working in international teams and organisations. I am fluent in German, English, Spanish and French and have knowledge of Italian. My goal over the coming months is to complement my skill set with a coaching training and to continuously experiment, learn and grow jointly with the Gamechanger community so we can lead and embody the transition towards a healthier, more meaningful and   future.

Nürnberg

Hi! I am a graphic designer based in Nuremberg, Germany. I'd love to be part of creative projects aimed to empower people and support happier lives for everybody. I think today we have enough tools to actively improve the world starting from our surroundings, and even quickly. Words are not enough, I want to be part of something tangible.  

Seattle, Washington, United States

Originally from New Hampshire, I defected to the West after college for work. I've spent the majority of my career in technology and the last five years in climate tech helping to rapidly advance home electrification.  While I believe technological innovation is a significant driver of demonstrating viability for climate solutions, I am keen to learn frameworks and action plans that can generate broader and more immediate impact across larger populations. Doughnut Economics was the first time I experienced a concise representation of a new economic model that resonated deeply with my values.         #c
