Goals / Remit
Research & Degrowth (R&D) is an academic association dedicated to research, awareness-raising and organising events on degrowth. R&D defines degrowth as a multi-level voluntary path towards reduction of production and consumption aiming at ecological sustainability, good life, liberty, and social justice. For R&D, degrowth is grounded in ecology, ecological economics, anthropology, psychology, and social sciences. In the degrowth process, R&D is concerned with democracy, international cooperation, and understanding as opposed to societal closure, fragmentation, and authoritarianism.
R&D brings diverse actors together to think, imagine, discuss, and create proposals for sustainable degrowth. R&D promotes a diversity of degrowth strategies for achieving social equity and ecological sustainability, including: grassroots action, education, public policy advice and alliance-building.Main EU files targeted
