About this Event
Join Magda for a fun and interactive workshop exploring doughnut economics, a framework to help us think through the ways we can meet the needs of all people within the means of the planet, starting right here in our neighbourhood.
‘Step into the doughnut’ and explore the ideas of economist Kate Raworth, imagining how a new economic system might bring us into the safe and just space that exists above the 'social foundation' and within planetary boundaries.
Come and share your experiences and thoughts on how we can shape our collective futures - everyone welcome.
About Neighbourhod Futures Festival
This will be Birmingham Settlement’s second Neighbourhood Futures Festival in partnership with the University of Birmingham Centre for Urban Wellbeing. The festival aims to offer both fun and thought-provoking activities, focussed on nature connection, community wellbeing and climate change - exploring how we can combat global issues within our own neighbourhoods.
The festival aimed to support local participation in activities to improve community wellbeing and sustainability, building on the notion that wellbeing is essential for transformation in the face of global injustices and environmental crises.
The festival is held at the Birmingham Settlement Nature & Wellbeing Centre, a beautifully green 3-acre space next to Edgbaston reservoir. This year, over 30 community partners are involved over the 4 days, providing workshops, talks, arts activities and drop-ins, performance, eco demonstrations and more.
