This public lecture series presents a platform to critically discuss newly emerging approaches to organizing the economy and fi rms based on collaboration and sharing in response to sustainability challenges of the 21st century. Most recent developments such as the development of the circular economy and creation of renewable energy cooperatives contributing to decentralizing energy systems across Europe, cooperative housing and crowd funding will be put into perspective. Better addressing the risk of social inequalities will be central towards building capacity in civil society to engage in wider sustainability transitions. The lectures explore whether such novel approaches aiming at systemic change, can meet new and formerly unmet community needs.
