Economies of Enough, Economies of Care: Degrowth and Solidarity Economy

An online webinar with Jose Andres Fuentes - the founder of the Center for Solidarity Economy and Social Research (CESIS) in Mexico, where he advises organizations on topics related to solidarity economies and Timo Kretschmer (he/all) is a Europe-based facilitator and political organiser with the Barcelona-born political education collective echo (education for collective horizons and organising) whose educational work centres on systems of oppression, degrowth, transformative justice and non-violent communication.

The discussion will focus on two critical responses to mainstream capitalism: degrowth (rethinking growth and consumption) and the solidarity economy (cooperatives, mutual aid, and economic democracy). Expect a look at their ideas, practical examples, and the tensions between them.

The session will be moderated by Krysia Lewińska – activist, global education trainer, and teacher. She holds a degree in anthropology and has for many years been involved in issues related to climate justice, human rights, and global interdependencies.
