Foundations of Doughnut Economics

 

Course Description:

Have you heard about Doughnut Economics? In this course, Kate Raworth will take you through the fundamentals of Doughnut Economics and demonstrate how and why it is rapidly gaining traction as a viable alternative to our current economic systems. The Earth’s resources are not infinite, and living within social and planetary boundaries is of key concern to each of us. Economic theories that are built on infinite expansion must shift to a focus on thriving in balance.

This course is setting the foundation of our new MRA (Master in Regenerative Action) and is a required course for that degree program. If you are interested in enrolling in the degree please submit your information here: Get Started

Learning Outcomes:

By the end of the course you should be able to:

  • Explain the main concepts behind Doughnut Economics

  • Understand the ramifications of exceeding planetary boundaries on Earth systems

  • Deepen your understanding of practical implementation using case studies

  • Begin your own process of exploration to see if Doughnut Economics could be viable in your community or local area
