Artists, elders, students, neighbours.

Tomorrow, June 21st, they’ll co-create a vision for the future of #OldKentRoad - through a shared portrait of what matters.

A local experiment with global implications. Come along! #NeighbourhoodPortrait #LondonDoughnut #DoughnutEconomics
Texts and an illustration over an ombre coloured background of yellow, red, pink and blue. The text reads “Tomorrow! Join us on Old Kent Road to co-create a neighbourhood where people and planet thrive.” Below it, an illustration of a light pink doughnut reads inside "unrolling the doughnut", with a light pink strip written "Old Kent Road" in handwriting style below the doughnut. At the bottom of the image, multiple partner logos are displayed.

What if planning started with people, not data?
This week we’re supporting a pilot on #OldKentRoad:
A #NeighbourhoodPortrait drawn by community hands — showing what thrives and what’s needed.
It’s joy. It’s strategy. It’s the Doughnut, live.
#LondonDoughnut #DoughnutEconomics
An illustration of a light pink doughnut, it reads inside "unrolling the doughnut". Below it, "Old Kent Road" is written in handwriting style. In the background, a close-up photo of a table with papers, stickers, and Post-its shows a hand holding a pen on the right side. At the bottom of the image, multiple partner logos are displayed over a coloured background.

Earth Month is over. But our stories live on.

Over 4 days, we co-wove a tapestry of bold, hopeful ideas.
Visions for thriving futures, shaped by care, creativity, and community.

Got a story to add? A local action to share?

Let’s keep weaving. DM us.

#MoreThanHumanStories #ParticipatoryEconomy
Collage image showing scenes from a participatory event (Earth Week 2025 at Central Saint Martins, London, UK). On the left, a group of people are gathered around a green circular outline on the floor, surrounded by fabric, props, and signs representing aspects of Doughnut Economics. On the right, close-up images show hands pinning fabric sprinkles with handwritten messages like ‘Random Acts of Kindness’ onto a tapestry. Logos of Central Saint Martins, Climate Emergency Network, and London Doughnut Economy Coalition appear at the top. Text on the image reads: 'Thanks to all those who showed up' and 'What would you add?’

✨ Add your sprinkle. Your vision. Your story.

The tapestry is still unfolding — until 2 pm tomorrow (25th) at Central Saint Martins, University of the Arts London.
Let’s imagine new futures together.

A close-up photo of the Doughnut tapestry. The base is cream fabric, with coloured fabric pieces (sprinkles) pinned to it. Each sprinkle has a message: a text, a drawing, an image, a poem, in written, drawn or embroidered format. At the top of all pages are the University of Arts London, Climate Emergency Network and London Doughnut Economy Coalition logos.

The economy is built on stories.

But what if we changed the script?

This #EarthWeek, inspired by Climate Emergency Network’s and @unioftheartslondon.bsky.social's #MoreThanHumanStories, we’re imagining new myths of care, connection & regeneration.

At LDEC, inspired by this #EarthWeek’s theme #MoreThanHumanStories, we’re eager to apply the @doughnuteconomics.bsky.social’s principle, ‘Unleash the power of peer-to-peer inspiration’.

Let’s stretch our imaginations. Share stories. Reimagine the economy.

@richardjmurphy.bsky.social finishes this article with "The other is a wholly new approach to economics. I see very little in between these two positions.

The old narratives are dead. We are waiting for the new to be born."
