Barcelona

Meeting with Anitra. Finally i decided to take my bicycle, and it was a very good idea to carry all the books!!

I gave two courses at the master of political ecology and degrowth at the Autonomous University of Barcelona

• one on the topic of technology and degrowth with Christian Kerschner. Presenting the topic of rebound effect which is also very relevant in housing: technological improvements are basically anihilated in a growth society
• the other on the topic of culture & degrowth with Aaron Vansintjan where students  presented each a piece of degrowth art and showed the fantastic richness of arts for degrowth. Arts might be key for enabling a real  degrowth transformation. In the follow-up we talked about how to deal  with the diversity in degrowth, introducing the idea of open localism from the book housing for degrowth.
