Research & Degrowth International (R&D) is an academic association dedicated to research, awareness-raising, and events organization around the topic of degrowth. R&D defines degrowth as a multi-level voluntary path towards reducing production and consumption aiming at ecological sustainability, good life, liberty, and social justice. For R&D, degrowth is grounded in ecology, ecological economics, anthropology, psychology, and social sciences.

R&D strives to bring scientists, civil society, practitioners, and activists together to think, imagine, discuss, and create proposals for sustainable degrowth. R&D supports and aims to maintain a diversity of degrowth strategies for achieving social equity and ecological sustainability, including:

grass-roots action and institutional interventions;

academic and practical work;

building of alternatives and opposition to environmentally and socially destructive projects and policies;

Local and international level work.

At present, R&D conducts most of its local activities in Spain and France, while organizing and co-organizing international events in various parts of Europe and beyond. R&D presently has about twenty-five active members based in Barcelona and France. It has created an informal network with members in more than 40 countries.
