a smorgasbord of flavours


A brief and intense online collaborative doughnut feast, to have a look at where we are in Cornwall (and beyond) on doughnut thinking, organised by Helston Climate Action Group, Cornwall Council, University of Exeter and Cafe Disruptif. :)
We talked about climate and change, about facts, and behaviour; about politics and community, about economic growth and business, about the future, and communication and poverty and  systems and planning; banking and carbon and schools and food; universities and hope and standing back to give space for new voices who have not yet been heard, and how we can all do that more...

Helston Climate Action Group, Cornwall Council, University of Exeter, Tin Coast Partnership, Shallal Theatre Company, Penzance Town Deal, Cafe Disruptif - all talk doughnut in a 2 minute taster session...

See below for the video:

Only connect: to underline the three dimensional nature of the doughnut, we each chose a point  from the doughnut randomly spoke to someone else on the online call to find the connections. Fascinating conversations ensue... and to remind us of "the old days" ... this is also what happened when we did this at the Doughnut Hack in 2018... you can see more here!
