Meet the new economic perspectives that have the potential to change the world at its core.

“Change the system, not the climate” is a common demand in the climate movement. But what kind of system do we actually want? In the midst of humanity’s worst crisis, there are pioneers standing ready. Outgrow the System explores how we can design an economic system that genuinely manages our scarce resources.

Beyond the narrow mainstream debate and the teachings of business schools, numerous new economic ideas and practices are emerging. They challenge old assumptions and offer fresh perspectives on how we can reorganise our production and consumption to ensure our survival as a species on this planet.

Outgrow the System aims to bring these transformative ideas to the forefront. It celebrates the abundance of creativity and ideas that exist worldwide, advocating that they collide and converge. The film envisions a world where social movements around the globe can rally behind positive visions instead of opposing dystopias.

Directed by the Swedish filmmakers Cecilia Paulsson and Anders Nilsson, this documentary delves into the pressing question of what a sustainable economy could look like, drawing attention to innovative economic perspectives.

The film screening will be followed by Q&A with the directors who will join us online from Sweden.

This event is part of our ‘Rethinking Prosperity on a Finite Planet’ series.
