How to &#x27;make&#x27; a sustainable society, how to learn from the past and how to get grip on rationales such life cycle assessments and footprints calculations? Is that possible at all? In public conversations in three different locations, changes in our ecological, social and economic footprints are discussed by various stakeholders in the current footprint debates that have been explicitly brought together: Designers &amp; Makers (producers) , Users &amp; Shakers (policymakers and trailblazers).The conversations are moderated by Ned Kaar.18.30 doors open, 19.00, start / drinks and nibbles availableSpeakers : Hestervan Dijk &amp; Reinder Bakker (<a href="https://www.overtreders-w.nl/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Overtreders W</a>)Nico Schouten (<a href="https://www.metabolic.nl/team/nico-schouten/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Metabolic</a>)Toon Koehorst (<a href="https://koehorstintveld.nl/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Koehorst in &#x27;t Veld</a>)Femke Coops (<a href="https://drift.eur.nl/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">DRIFT</a> Dutch Research Institute for Transitions)Salon 3: BreakingThe third and final salon looks at the breakdown economy and the challenges facing the world if sustainability goals are not achieved.
