Post-Growth Movement

The Post-Growth Movement challenges the idea that economic growth should be the main goal of society. It recognizes that endless growth can harm the environment, deplete resources, and increase inequality. Instead, it advocates for a focus on well-being, sustainability, and social equity, emphasizing quality of life over just increasing production and consumption. The movement encourages alternative ways to measure prosperity, such as happiness and environmental health, and supports local, resilient communities that prioritize sustainable living. Its goal is to create a balanced society that respects ecological limits while ensuring everyone’s needs are met.
