Creating social prosperity within the (ecological) boundaries of the planet: the doughnut model of British economist Kate Raworth is becoming increasingly popular in politics. After Amsterdam, also Brussels is committed to apply the theory for a more sustainable (local) society. On 22 January we welcomed Kate Raworth, Barbara Trachte, State Secretary of the Brussels Capital Region, responsible for Economic Transition and Scientific Research, and Marieke Van Doorninck, alderwoman in Amsterdam for Sustainability and Spatial Planning.

This webinar forms part of the Cities As Places of Hope transnational project, highlighting transformative green cities in Europe as engines of transition.
