DO NUT Give Up! Doughnut Economy for Third Sector Organisations working with young people
DO NUT Give Up! Doughnut Economy for Third Sector Organisations working with young people (2021-2-EE01-KA220-YOU-000048246)
Aims of the tool
This Guide aims to explore the interrelationship between the Doughnut Economy and the role social economy organisations can play in it, especially when working with young people. We introduce the basic concepts of the Doughnut Economy and its link with the values and work of social economy organisations, such as the partner associations of this project, as we believe that they can play a crucial role in becoming vectors of change.
Description of the tool
The Doughnut Economy refers to an alternative, solidarity-based, cooperative and simpler model of society, which is opposed to the current system of growth built upon overproduction and overconsumption, whose tendency is indisputably unsustainable for the future of the earth and its population. As Yayo Herrero (2010) points out “we live in a biocidal system”.
The Doughnut Economy aims at preserving natural resources and maintaining social integrity. In other words, it rethinks our species’ role in the ecosystem and formulates a new ethic to reorient the current socio-economic practices (which is becoming increasingly urgent, due to the lack of seriousness, enthusiasm and clear strategies).
How can we put this kind of transition in practice and ensure that it is democratic and based on the concepts of common welfare and care for the planet?
