REAL

This project aims to fill the gap between the empirical and quantitative imperative to remain within planetary boundaries, and the policy-provision-politics configurations that would enable our societies to change course while prioritising human wellbeing. In order to do so, it identifies the elements of research that are essential to bridging post-growth trajectories with real-world feasibility. Focus areas include inter- and intra-national inequalities, trade relations and unequal exchange, labour and wellbeing, existing examples of post-growth, and economic democracy.
