DESCRIPTION:Jie Gao\nJoin us for a public screening of The Cost of Growth
 \, a 2025 documentary now travelling through cinemas\, universities\, and 
 festivals across Europe.\n\nEarlier the same day\, the participatory works
 hop “Feeling Futures: What futures feel desirable\, and what emotional 
 attachments make letting go so difficult?” will invite participants to 
 explore the emotional and moral attachments that shape how we imagine chan
 ge. The evening screening continues this conversation through film: what a
 re the real costs of growth\, and what kinds of solidarity\, resistance an
 d cooperation are already emerging?\n\nThe Cost of Growth connects local s
 truggles against extractivism in Serbia\, Italy and Sápmi with broader de
 bates on justice\, democracy\, and war. It shows how people across Europe 
 are not only resisting false solutions\, but also building alternatives - 
 from grassroots organizing to new forms of cooperation and solidarity. \n
  \nThe screening will close with a brief informal exchange among audience
  members on how people feel\, understand\, and organize around sustainab
 ility transitions\, and how attention\, care and solidarity can become par
 t of collective pathways toward more just and liveable futures. \n\nThe 
 discussion is facilitated by Jie Gao\, PhD candidate in the EPFL–ETH Zur
 ich Joint Doctoral Program in the Learning Sciences and transdisciplinary 
 researcher on emotional capability development for socio-ecological transf
 ormations.
