Join Dirk HolemansPhilsan Osman, and Marie-Monique Franssen as they discuss their recently published essay ‘Voor wie willen we zorgen?’ 

About the Event

The global Covid crisis brought healthcare into the spotlight. Care, however, extends beyond the strictly medical in that it includes everything we do to preserve and restore the world. The erosion of the welfare state, the plundering of the Global South and the crossing of planetary boundaries is alarming. There is also the link between the exploitation of people and of nature. Imagine we found the courage to truly care for all people and other earthlings, for our unique living world.  

Inspired by ecofeminists worldwide, the authors wonder: can care be a new starting point, based on connectedness and generosity? Can care, as an emancipatory principle, underpin politics and economics? 

In this webinar, we will dive deeper into the content of the essay, followed by a Q&A with the audience.
