What would it be like to create a place where people experience a better quality of life? Without the constant pressure to consume and produce more? Learn more during this event.

What if we shifted the focus from quantitative growth (consumption and GDP growth) to qualitative growth (increased quality of life and biodiversity)? And create a place that balances social, environmental and economic values? We are making a shift from new economic thinking towards doing.

During the kick-off event of the project ‘New Economy Thinking. New Economy Acting’ we will combine the knowledge and experience of those who think and act. This allows us to take on socioeconomic experiments in the near and distant future on the way to making the Marineterrein an ecological urban paradise. The goal? To create a place in the city where users and residents can flourish within the limits of the planet.

‘New Economy Thinking. New Economy Acting’ is an invitation-only event
