Helena Norberg-Hodge, a leading figure in the new economy movement, joins us in the final episode of SystemShift Season 2. Drawing from her experiences in Ladakh, India, Helena discusses how traditional values and community bonds were eroded by modernisation and consumerism. She advocates for localisation as a way to promote environmental sustainability and community well-being through decentralised, community-driven efforts.
Helena critiques colonial economic theories and proposes actionable solutions for a more interconnected and relationship-based economy. She highlights the necessity for systemic transformation to address the shortcomings of the current economic model. As we continue our journey towards a sustainable future, Helena’s insights are essential listening for anyone interested in transitioning to a more equitable and environmentally conscious economy.
