Cities were crucial in humanity's journey long before capitalism & other structural oppression. Through Degrowth Municipalism cities can continue this role as these human constructions fade into history.

📣In November 2024, we were part of organising #FearlessCities gathering in #Sheffield. A year on, we're reflecting and expanding on directions for municipalism in the UK and beyond - citizens’ assemblies, mutual aid, action networks & reclaiming common spaces. 🪷

Fearless Cities, the international summit initiated by Barcelona En Comu, shows how we can build another world. And there is much to take from the Fearless Cities we co-organised in Sheffield in 2024, which we have explored in three blogs and a podcast.

"It's not just that the right has all the money and the media, we have to be really frank, it's also that they've out-organized us. Since Goldwater, they've been door-knocking, doing all the work that we have to do, strategically, every day." —Kali Akuno #FearlessCities
