An impact film by Anuna de Wever, Lena Hartog & Brototi Roy. Directed by Thomas Maddens.

For whom does the economy continue to grow, and at whose expense? What is the actual price paid by humanity and the planet for endless growth? What if the climate crisis is fundamentally about exploitation, inequality and power? And what would an economy not driven by profit, but by democracy, justice and well-being, look like?

Join us on 21 October for the screening of The Cost of Growth, followed by a lively debate with Anuna De Wever.

Schedule:

  • 19:00 – Documentary Screening
  • 20:30 – Break
  • 20:45 – Discussion with Anuna De Wever
  • 21:15 – Audience Q&A

In partnership with: HRRN, Linx+, Green Office, and the Department of Conflict and Development
