How can place-based thinking help shape a fairer, greener economy?

Join UWE's Sustainable Economies Research Group (SERG) to explore bioregionalism — an approach that sees humans as part of nature, and local economies as symbiotic and co-evolving with living systems.

Through expert talks and workshops, discover how bioregional principles can guide the transition to a sustainable and resilient economy. Open to researchers, practitioners, policymakers, students and sustainability enthusiasts, this event is a chance to share insights, spark innovation and build
cross-sector connections.
