@reclaimtheeconomy #ReclaimTheEconomyWeek
This WEAll Ireland webinar launches a six-month economic literacy and co-design project led by Cultivate and Feasta, supported by the Irish Environmental Pillar, and is part of the global Reclaim the Economy Week – seven days of action calling for economies that put people, communities and the living world first. reclaimtheeconomy.org
Across Ireland and globally, we are facing converging crises – climate breakdown, rising inequality, the cost of living and the erosion of community wellbeing. These are not separate problems, but symptoms of an economic system designed around GDP growth, extraction, and profit, rather than care, fairness, and ecological limits.
This webinar will introduce and explore a range of emerging economic approaches—including ecological, circular, social solidarity, doughnut, feminist, and wellbeing economies—that offer practical and hopeful pathways beyond the dominant economic narrative.
Together, we will begin to unpack what these frameworks mean, how they differ, and how they support degrowth.
Whether you work in civil society, local communities, policy, or climate action, this session offers a clear and accessible starting point for reclaiming the economy as something we shape — not something that happens to us.
