2024 Building solidarities and alliances between degrowth and food sovereignty movements
https://journals.librarypublishing.arizona.edu/jpe/article/5841/galley/6383/view/Degrowth and food sovereignty movements share commitments to social-ecological transformation, democracy and the flourishing of human and non-human life.

This contribution is based on a literature review and a workshop held at the 9th International Degrowth Conference in Zagreb, Croatia, in 2023, where activists, academics, and practitioners collectively explored alliance formation between degrowth and food sovereignty movements. It explores the barriers, gaps, and differences in their political and organizing traditions that may block opportunities for collaboration in different contexts. It also investigates cases of mutual support and collective organizing for transformation already in existence
