Next month we're holding a gathering to celebrate Small Is Beautiful and EF Schumacher's proportionate approach to economics. What did it mean 50 years ago? What does it mean for us now? How can we adapt and reimagine this ethos for the future? Join us! dartington.org/event/small-is…

Join us on September 2 to celebrate 50 years of E F Schumacher's seminal text, Small Is Beautiful. dartington.org/event/small-is…
