Timothée Parrique: There Are Alternatives To Capitalism

There Are Alternatives To Capitalism - Keynote The global economy undervalues the work that sustains life, care, community, and the protection of ecosystems, while rewarding extraction and short-term profit. This session starts from a proven reality: capitalism is not the only way to organise an economy. Alternatives already exist, are being implemented today, and they work. Drawing on degrowth, ecofeminism, and decolonial struggles, we will share concrete examples of commons governance, cooperative and democratic ownership, and solidarity-based institutions, then discuss what makes them viable and how to grow their impact beyond isolated cases.
