Proceedings from the SCORAI Europe Workshop held at the 4. Degrowth Conference, September, 2014, Leipzig, Germany. Including session contributions and a documentation of the discussions.
From the document about the workshop: Degrowth is impossible to achieve without a commitment to strong sustainable consumption. At the same time, the potential for strong sustainable consumption governance depends on greater societal acceptance of degrowth, including among policy makers and voters. Advancing strong sustainable consumption research and governance can thus add weight to degrowth arguments, and vice versa. The SCORAI sessions at the Degrowth 2014 conference therefore intended to further enhance mutual exchange and learning between the SC and Degrowth research communities, specifically in relation to shared research interests and common ground for advocacy and political action.
