Public Reaction to the Festival de la Décroissance Conviviale

  • Public reaction
  • May 6, 2019

This reaction to the Festival once again taking place on the Campus MIL site was written by Aaron Vansintjan, Bengi Akbulut, Vijay Kolinjivadi, Alex Megelas and Céline Jacob. It calls for the Festival to acknowledge its unanticipated impact in perpetuating the gentrification of Park-Extension, and to adopt a number of strategies to mitigate its impact. The reaction was circulated broadly using social media channels. Members of the CBAR Network assisted in a mediated conversation between Festival organizers and the CAPE.
