" Week (26 Jan to 1 Feb), we are hosting a community screening of "The Cost of Growth" to pause and reflect on the actual price paid by people and planet for extractive and unlimited growth.

Following the screening, we will convene via zoom for a dialogue to explore what these stories mean in our local contexts and what it might look like to reclaim the economy in more regenerative ways. 

Total duration of the event is 2 hours (3pm - 5pm CET).

Ticket price of USD 2 covers the licensing of the film. All funds raised through screenings is channelled back to campaigns on democratizing the economy and to support the communities and movements featured in the film. 

Thank you for your support and participation.

Brought to you by the Regeneration Collective; co-hosted by Raúl Montiel, Deepa Mirchandani and Denise Pang.

The Cost of Growth follows climate activists Anuna De Wever and Lena Hartog as they travel through Italy, Serbia, and Sápmi, documenting grassroots resistance to extractivism. The film connects these local struggles with broader debates on war, justice, and democracy - showing how extractive violence is a form of structural warfare on communities and ecosystems. 

Through intimate encounters with grassroots movements, the film weaves together voices from affected communities and leading thinkers—such as Fati N'Zi-Hassane, Vijay Prashad, Greta Thunberg and Jason Hickel - to interrogate who truly pays for growth, how growth is defended and how we move beyond.

This is a 100 % nonprofit project: funding raised through screenings is channelled back to campaigns on democratizing the economy and to support the communities and movements featured in the film.
