to ecologize economic thinking!
What is ecological economics? Ecology and economics share the same Greek root, eco or oikos, meaning “household”. Ecology means the study of the house, while economics means the management of the house.
Ecological economics takes the house to studying and managing humans impacts on the world through an integrated and systems thinking approach to foster genuine wellbeing for people and the rest of nature by taking full advantage of our accumulated knowledge and understating of both the natural and the social realities of our planetary system.
Why support us? Ecological Economics For All (EE4ALL) is an open access educational initiative to make readily available the theory and knowledge of ecological economics to everyone who wishes to use it to foster genuine and inclusive well-being through ecologically sustainable and equitable societies. EE4ALL aims to achieve its mission by facilitating educational, collaborative, and policy initiatives that bring people together to advance well-being for all.
Our mission is grounded in Donella Meadow’s tools for the transition to sustainability aimed at visioning, truth-telling, networking, collaborating, co-learning, and loving to transform and ecologize our economic thinking.
EE4ALL takes a lot creative work, energy, time and love to run. We welcome donations to continue our arduous and rigorous efforts to pioneer, develop, and provide scholarships for our Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC) and open access resources such as our virtual textbook in ecological economics available in the U.S.A. and globally (translated into dozens of languages).
Currently, we are fundraising to provide another MOOC in ecological economics in 2024. We have a track record of success in developing these MOOC with our highly acclaimed EE4ALL Summer Crash Course of 2022 (with more than 850 registrants from around the world), and our recent 2023 Rethinking Econ 101 Course (with hundreds of registrants) in partnership with Rethinking Economics USA and others.
Our efforts are aimed at contributing to the growing global movement to inspire students of economics and sustainability and the public to rethink economics for people and planet to achieve genuine and inclusive wellbeing within planetary boundaries for all.
How can you support us? EE4ALL is an open access initiative funded through gift donations via the Leadership for the Ecozoic Fund at the University of Vermont’s Gund Institute for Environment.
If you are inspired by the mission of EE4All, you can make a tax deductible donation under the “Leadership for the Ecozoic Fund” and indicate in the “Gift Instructions” that this gift is meant to support the Ecological Economics for All initiative!
Thank you, we appreciate your support!
