It is well established that since the Industrial Revolution, the main focus of humanity has been around the concept of perpetual growth. Governments and businesses around the world have led us down this trajectory over the decades. This however, is not sustainable and has given rise to many of the continuous critical problems that we face today. In order to avoid global collapse, we need systemic change and ensure we put ourselves on a trajectory more aligned with a stabilised world.
Key learning objectives:
Learn about the origins of the Club of Rome
Understand the key terminology used in the research
Understand the difference between system dynamics and mainstream models
