3rd International Conference on Degrowth for Ecological Sustainability and Social Equity
The chosen theme for the 3rd International Conference on Degrowth for Ecological Sustainability and Social Equity is: “The great transition: degrowth as a passage of civilization"
We organize, in fact, this third edition in a historical phase in which we are faced with the necessity of a deep change, a change that asks us to reflect on topics and issues apparently very different – work, income, consumption, waste, energy, technology, mobility, education, citizenship – but actually inextricably linked.
We thought the Conference as an opportunity to confront on degrowth exempt from all reductionism, economical but even ecological or political, and this requires to organize debate and discussion paying attention to connections, interactions, transversal linking, with a strong cross-disciplinary look capable of holding together natural and social sciences.
