Let's talk

We’re delighted to announce that our international seminar, “Let’s Talk: Unveiling Invisible Economy,” garnered significant attention, not just within our circles, but also in the mainstream media in Slovenia. The seminar’s discussions on Degrowth, led by international guests including Aljoša Slameršak, Brototi Roy, and Mladen Domazet, resonated beyond the seminar room, making their way to the airwaves.

Spotlight on “Radiosfera” at Prvi radio, RTV Slovenija:

The enlightening discussions from our seminar were featured on the radio program “Radiosfera” at Prvi radio, RTV Slovenija. The radio show, titled “Degrowth: Putting Human Happiness and Well-Being at the Centre Instead of GDP” delved into critical questions that lie at the heart of the degrowth movement:

  • Is unlimited economic growth feasible on a finite planet with finite resources?
  • Should we shift our focus towards reducing resource and energy consumption while prioritizing human needs?
  • How can we meet global needs with less energy?
  • How do we create a fairer wealth distribution?

Insights from Our Esteemed Guests:

  • Aljoša emphasized the need to democratize decision-making processes, ensuring that a significant part of the global population is not excluded.
  • Brototi advocated for solutions rooted in degrowth and technology, making it clear that economic growth is not the solution.
  • Mladen called for unity in the face of the climate crisis, highlighting the importance of more democracy in addressing this pressing issue.
