Degrowth Group Assembly Process

Stirring papers

A stirring paper is a short and comprehensible text that will serve as inspiration for a working group in the GAP-process. Scientists, practitioners, artists and activists alike have been invited to submit stirring papers. Stirring papers are aimed at introducing new proposals or debates for a certain aspect of degrowth and at stirring discussions that are also relevant to non-scientists. They may build on the collective consensus formation processes at the former international degrowth conferences, but may also raise new issues and proposals.
