Environmentally friendly, socially stabilizing and economically feasible policies are key in developing our society. We are talking with the former president of the CPB, the central economic analysis institution in the Netherlands, which gives prognoses and opinions about economic policies.

In this episode we are joined by Carola and Jonathan to hear about their view of a regenerative society. They are also working on a project in which art is used to create and express a sense of belonging, and most importantly give a voice to people that are less often heard. 

In this episode Margriet tells us about her experience with finding regenerativity through spirituality, meditation, qigong, and how she has used that in her music career. We also explore what a regenerative society would look like and what the first steps would be to get there. 

Change needs to be financed, so there is no way around financial markets. How does the stock market contribute to a more sustainable economy and are we on the right track? Our guest has the answers. Dirk F. Gerritsen works as Assistant Professor for the section Finance at the Utrecht University School of Economics and is here with us to talk money.

With this first episode we kick off our podcast and talk about what 'Regenerativity' means to us.
