OM FESTIVALEN
Samfundet står overfor store udfordringer for omstilling til et regenerativt system. Degrowth bevægelsen arbejder på at udvikle ideer for hvordan vi kan leve med hinanden og naturen uden at nedbryde, men i stedet bygge op – sammen. Degrowth festivalen vil italesætte radikale løsninger, på vores radikale problemer, ved at præsentere nye tænkninger for hvordan vi organiserer os og opbygger spirende fællesskaber for omstilling. I løbet af weekenden får alle mulighed for at deltage i samtalen om, hvordan vi kan løse de hårdknuder, vi står i, blive inspireret og finde håb i fællesskabets muligheder for omtænkning.
Degrowth Festival 2024 handler om samfund, solidaritet og spirende fremtider. Temaer med fokus på strategier for håb, vil blive præsenteret gennem workshops og paneler. Oplæg og workshops vil kredse om solidaritet og visionær omstrukturering, inddragende workshops, fællesspisning og sanselige kunstneriske indslag, der stimulerer forbundenheden til hinanden og hacker vores vanetænkning. Desuden vil der indgå et solidaritets-panel lørdag aften.

Kunst performances lørdag:
SHADOW GLEANERS – På en petanquebane nær havnen strækker en utålmodig rytme sig ud. En samlers cirkulære bevægelser inviterer publikum i kontakt med jordens tæthed og vindens kontinuerlige asymmetri. Danser/koreograf Stine Frandsen og musiker/komponist Felia Gram-Hanssen undersøger gennem krop og lyd sanselige og imaginære relationer til hverdagslige omgivelser.
YANA – Titlen YANA er kort for ”You are not alone”, eller ”du er ikke alene”, som er det vi i klimabevægelsen råber som støtte mens en aktivist bliver arresteret. Vi hjælper hinanden at huske på, at vi ikke er alene med følelser og ønsker om hvordan fremtiden vil se ud – vi er mange. Men hvordan ser den fremtid ud vi kæmper for? Miljøet YANA er skabt af tripods. Her mødes performer og tilskuer i at forestille sig hvordan verden, lokaltog internationalt, vil se ud i fremtiden. Mens performeren bevæger sig med miljøet, fortæller hun sine egne historier fra fremtiden, som udvikles mens hun får nye impulser fra tilskuerne i form af sætninger, spørgsmål og forslag. Kunstnerisk leder / Performer: Tanya Montan Rydell
Udviklet i samarbejde med: Aleksandra Lewon, Esther Wrobel og Mari Vincentz
Co-produceret af: Nexus Dance og Tårnby Park Studio.

ABOUT THE FESTIVAL
Our society faces significant challenges in transitioning to a regenerative system. The Degrowth movement works on developing ideas for how we can live with each other and nature in a way that does not continue the destruction and exploitation but rather regenerate it – together.
The Degrowth Festival will address radical solutions to our radical problems by presenting new ways of thinking about how we organize ourselves and build sprouting communities for transformation. Throughout the weekend, everyone will have the opportunity to engage in conversations on how to solve the challenges we face, be inspired, and find hope in the possibilities of community-driven rethinking.
Degrowth Festival 2024 is about community, solidarity, and sprouting futures. Themes focusing on strategies for hope will be presented through workshops and panels. Presentations and workshops will revolve around solidarity and visionary restructuring, inclusive workshops, communal dining, and sensory artistic expressions that stimulate interconnectedness and challenge our habitual thinking. In addition, there will be a Solidarity panel on Saturday evening.
PROGRAM SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 21
Talks Saturday 10:00-14:00 (in English):
Basic introduction to Degrowth by Human Ecologist Michelle Appelros
Conversation: Degrowth and Beyond: Movement Building, Alliances and Solidarity with researchers and activists Laura Horn (Associate Professor, Department of Social Sciences and Business, RUC) & Vasna Ramasar (Senior Lecturer, Lund University).
Seminar: Climate Justice and System Change: From Resistance to Transformation with Salvatore Paolo De Rosa (activist and researcher in political ecology, University of Copenhagen).
Art performances Saturday:
SHADOW GLEANERS At a restorative space near the harbour an impatient structure is pulled apart. By sensing the
thickness of the ground as well as the ticklish touch of the wind, a gatherers pathway unfolds.
Through body and sound dancer/choreographer Stine Frandsen and musician/composer Felia
Gram-Hanssen explore sensuous and imaginary relations with our everyday surroundings.
YANA – The title YANA is short for "You are not alone", which is what we in the climate movement shout as support when an activist is being arrested. We help each other remember that we are not alone with our feelings and desires for how the future should look – we are many. But what does the future we fight for look like? The environment of YANA is created by tripods. Here, performer and audience meet to imagine how the world, locally and globally, will look in the future. As the performer moves with the environment, she tells her own stories from the future, which develop as she receives new impulses from the audience in the form of sentences, questions, and suggestions. Artistic leder / Performer: Tanya Montan Rydell
Developed in collaboration with: Aleksandra Lewon, Esther Wrobel og Mari Vincentz
Co-produceret by: Nexus Dance og Tårnby Park Studio.
