Kate Raworth is a renegade economist focused on making economics fit for 21st century realities. She is the creator of the Doughnut of social and planetary boundaries and co-founder of Doughnut Economics Action Lab.

Together, they address the one core question of “What Could Possibly Go Right?” with thoughts including:

• That Doughnut Economics offers a model to “meet the needs of all people within the means of the Living Planet”.
• That “one of the ways that the world changes is through empathy”, which can overcome our social divides.
• That we need to be good ancestors and “step into the shoes of people in tomorrow's world as citizens of the future.”
• That recognizing and respecting boundaries is good for our own and the planet’s health, while also being a means to unleash our creativity.
