Doughnut Economics Action Lab announces Global Donut Days on 6-9 November 2024

The festival returns for a second year with a newly expanded timeline celebrating local action and global connection through Doughnut Economics

On 6-9 November 2024, the global community of Doughnut Economics Action Lab (DEAL) will be celebrating Global Donut Days, a multi-day, community-led festival, to be held online and in-person around the world, centred on Doughnut Economics.

What’s New This Year

Last year Global Donut Day saw participation in 26 countries, 56 places, over 100 events and more than 4000 people on one day.

This year, Global Donut Days will be a multi-day event to allow more flexibility and opportunity for organising local events.

Global Donut Days will start with a day of online events on 6th November. This will be followed by three days of events from 7th to 9th November, organised by members of the DEAL Community, all around the world, centred on the ideas of Doughnut Economics.

About Doughnut Economics

The Doughnut offers a goal of what it means for humanity to thrive in the 21st century between social and ecological limits. Kate Raworth’s 2017 book, Doughnut Economics: seven ways to think like a 21st century economist, explored the economic thinking needed to bring humanity into the Doughnut, drawing together insights from diverse economic perspectives in a way that everyone can understand.
