Just Transition
Sun 25.11.18

It is not impossible to achieve a transition from a society that respects the limitations of the planet and offers everyone the possibility to develop their talents. But it is not easy. How can we effect a just transition in the current context of increasing polarization and inequality? Can we enhance social justice while also addressing the demands of ecological sustainability?

There are quite a few yawning gaps these days: that between those with wealth and those without, between those who are on board and those who are excluded, between the salary of the CEO and that of the worker, etc. A debate on a pressing issue, involving several specialists and taking as its motto ‘Change the world, it needs it’ (Bertolt Brecht).

We are obsessed with energy. It guides our thoughts and actions, though
we are not always aware of it. Davis Freeman has created four performances on this topic,
midway between a stand-up comedy show, a conference, a piece of
choreography and a concert. He is aided in this by actors from Forced
Entertainment, musicians from Einstürzende Neubauten etc.
We are showing the four parts in a single day. You can watch them all in
succession (with a snack in between) or just choose the one(s) you want
to see.
