The ability to cooperate brought us to where we are today, and it’s what will help us change the world. Without cooperation, the Circular Economy will not be possible. So how will this work, practically? And what are the key principles of cooperation that we can start applying everywhere we go?
In this episode, we interview Annika Rosing, head of department at the Nordic Council of Ministers and discuss the role that international cooperation can play in driving sustainable production and consumption, as well the challenges and opportunities we face along the way. Let’s work together.

The proposal for Degrowth calls for an intentional downscaling of the global economy to achieve both ecological sustainability and social justice.
