Episode Synopsis


The #Covid_19 pandemic has fundamentally questioned how society should be organised to ensure health and wellbeing for all. It’s time for a paradigm shift: from a sleepwalking society focused on profit, competition, and consumption, to a future-oriented one that prioritises investment, cooperation, and wellbeing. In this episode, Dirk Holemans argues that the guiding principle for recovery should be resilience and says “Let COVID-19 be a wake-up call that puts an end to sleepwalking.”Produced by the Green European Journal (www.greeneuropeanjournal.eu).Written by Dirk Holemans.
