City: Sofia
Country: Bulgaria
Asen’s proposal for promoting Speak Out and OVER:
“We are a Degrowth group of 50+ people in Sofia, discussing and acting on degrowth policies, incl. raising awareness on overconsumption and limiting the advertisements in the city – we will use the books in our club and since we share a microlibrary with Ideas Factory (www.ideasfactorybg.org) – the staff and the people, taking part in the educational events will also have access to the books. I personally worked at consumers’ association and some science work in the past. I am now blogging on critical consumption here (www.snsk.eu). Currently, we are introducing a method of critical consumption city tours in 6 towns in Bulgaria with BundJugend/Young Friends of Earth and Ecocentric Foundation (http://ecocentric-foundation.org/projects/konsumuvay/). We are regularily organizing school events and lectures, summer green academies on circular economy and different aspects of degrowth. We would be happy and grateful to have this new material as a base of our discussions.”
There are many ways to participate! Together, we can raise awareness and bring about change.
