Our contemporary economic systems are creating crises rather than solving them. In order to effectively address huge issues such as climate change and growing inequality, economic systems need to be changed. Luckily there are multiple signs of change: with widespread calls for reform of international financial institutions and governments taking new roles in steering their economies through pandemics and geopolitical shocks, the window of economic system change is open. Further, there is a growing movement of actors spanning Europe building new economic policies and challenging mainstream economic views. In this talk, Johannes Nuutinen will make a case for a broad economic transformation and showcase some of the organisations and individuals working to shift economic systems in Europe. He will highlight the key role governments and civil servants can take in ushering in new economic systems.
