Unfortunately, the SAR2020 conference in Bergen titled ‘Crisis Collective’ fell victim to the Corona crisis. I was very excited to go there, present my work and interact.
I completely understand and support the decision and am nevertheless curious about what form the alternative to the conference format may take. Part of the good that can come out in this crisis is that we are forced to develop new formats of exchange and the unthinkable is all of a sudden possible. Or in other words, the Corona crisis is the best advertising for the Degrowth movement. If in human perception, it is easier to react to the immediate threat (Corona), what can we learn from that for the long term threats (climate and eco collapse)?
