Doughnut Economics is an idea of Kate Raworth’s that is getting increasing attention nationally and internationally. It sets out 9 ecological ‘planetary boundaries’ (ocean acidification, air pollution, etc) and 12 social dimensions (education, health, housing, gender equality, etc.) against which all new plans and developments can be measured to see if they are safe and socially just.

• Visit the Doughnut Economics website
  
• Watch a video of Kate Raworth talking about Doughnut Economics

Doughnut Economics in action locally:

• Cornwall Council is an example of putting principles into practice with their Decision-making Wheel. See a case study of the Saints Trail project.
• The Devon Doughnut – this is a collective in the making to share advice, expertise and thinking on Doughnut Economics, circular economy and building community resilience.
• Regenerate Devon – here you’ll find recordings and videos of the 3-day summit of social enterprises and council-community partnerships
• New Prosperity Devon - community wealth building programme with people at its centre
