"The New Bauhaus movement will need to fundamentally transform our world, establishing new relationships between tangible assets, intangible assets, craft, automation and civic engagement economies. The transformation we face requires a New Bauhaus economy. This first working version of the paper draws upon our team’s preliminary research and interaction with relevant European actors. It is a collaborative and constructive contribution to the New European Bauhaus movement. It will be further developed over the course of the next twelve months with a series of in-person and online engagements. A final version of the paper will be launched at the New European Bauhaus Festival in Brussels in April 2024." - Desire – an Irresistible Circular Society.
