The idea of de-growth has emerged over the last 15 years dealing with the question whether infinite growth in a finite world is desirable or even possible. It tries to understand the convergence of today’s crises, argues that energetic, environmental, political and existential, economic and social crises are interconnected. It aims at exploring alternative and coherent solutions on different levels.
In the workshop led by Vincent Liegey, a Budapest-based French researcher we first learn about the basic idea of degrowth, then think together about its implications and opportunities in our arts world.

During IETM Multi-location 2020: Local meeting in Budapest, we mean to deal with issues affecting the sector in the changed/constantly changing circumstances, as well as to look for connection points and opportunities for cooperation with other sectors.
Now, it is important to us to stay open to each other and to the world while we experience limitations and closure both in personal and public life.
Our topics include, among others: the rearrangements caused by the epidemic, the future of international mobility, the issue and problems of sustainable touring, and the importance of online space.
