Since we’re
all online these days … here’s a webcast where participants can ask
questions while in progress, or watch the playback afterwards.

For
Systems Thinking Ontario fans … both Katie Kish and Sophie Sanniti
have led sessions for us (before they decamped York U. for McGill U, and
U. Waterloo, respectively). They are active in CANSEE (Canadian
Society for Ecological Economics) and Economics for the Anthropocene
working group across McGill U., York U., and U. Vermont.
A Post-Pandemic Economy that Values Makers & Caregivers | Scheduled for May 13, 2020 on Youtube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lhmXoz_7AE
The
COVID-19 pandemic has not only disrupted production chains and
health-care systems, but also most directly threatens the wellbeing of
the largely-invisible work force sustaining society. In this special Sustain What takeover, ecological economics scholars Katie Kish, Sophie Sanniti and Katharine Zywert lead a discussion with host Andy Revkin
exploring how revaluation of the care economy (teachers, parents,
healthcare workers), coupled with a movement towards open-source and
free knowledge, can create more resilient production chains and enhance
long-term wellbeing — for both people and the planet. (Images in the Youtube flyer include Michel Bauwens, Bill Sutherland and Susan Paulson. This is one in a series from http://j.mp/sustainwhatlive (that links to https://www.earth.columbia.edu/videos/channel/sustain-what ).
