Drawing on the experiences and lessons from last year’s conference, this year we will go a step further as we combine the philosophical discussions with concrete examples of successful and cutting-edge transition projects. We will explore alternative ways in which our society can function and flourish towards a sustainable green economy.
We need new solutions to the various challenges, which we as a global society face today in terms of our flawed economic system, decreasing growth rates in the economy, environmental depletion, and the challenges of providing a healthy life for a growing world population. Today’s dialogue of how to meet these challenges has continually focused on the productivity and efficiency of the current system rather than reinventing the system. We hence invite you to rethink the everyday systems of today from food production to money and the economy.
Meanwhile there is also more and more attention on the need for changing the way we organise society, the objective of our economic activities, how we exchange goods and services, and how we manage our collective commons. The transition agenda is slowly, but steadily entering the public debate. Society calls for INSPIRATION, for ACTION for NEW MODELS.[/fusion_text][fusion_text]
This is our window of opportunity!

We want to explore alternative ways of thinking about and responding to economics; combining academia with everyday life. Through-out the conference all participants can expect inspirational speeches and workshops and creative in-puts which will provide us with a greater understanding of the many ways a sustainable economic transition can be achieved today, not tomorrow.EPP 2015 is a two-day conference aiming to discuss issues concerning the crucial transition of society towards a sustainable economic system. The conference will revolve around four topics.
- Exploring Complementary Currencies
- Exploring Cooperatives
- Exploring Local Food Production
- Exploring Peer-2-Peer Dynamics
The conference is set to inspire action and invoke a sense that change is possible which is exactly why we will focus on the solutions, rather than on the problems. Furthermore, EPP2015 creates an opportunity for meeting like-minded people. Participants will leave the conference inspired by new ideas, equipped with the confidence to take action, and gain immediate access to a great network for collaborating on the advancement of these visions.[/fusion_text][/three_fourth][one_fourth last=”yes” spacing=”yes” background_color=”” background_image=”” background_repeat=”no-repeat” background_position=”left top” border_size=”0px”
