We live in a world dominated by numbers. We express value in terms of money. And we are increasingly leaving more to the “free market”: care and welfare, education, art and culture. But from all directions we hear increasingly loud and clear that this system that strives for infinite growth is no longer maintainable. Even the World Economic Forum claims we need a Great Reset. In the one-off VALUE Magazine, you follow the search of three millennials – Melodie Michel, Girma Segaar and Amber Bloos – for what a new economy could look like. Which values ​​are central to this new economy? How do we get there? Who has already started? And what can we do ourselves? Through interviews, stories, infographics, columns, photo series and illustrations, Melodie, Girma and Amber take you on their quest. No doom scenarios or abstract theories, but hopeful visions and concrete proposals and initiatives. Due to the wide range of opinions and models and the all-encompassing nature of the subject, you will soon no longer see the forest for the trees. In VALUE Magazine, Melodie, Girma and Amber pick some of these trees to plant and contain them. Maybe even make them grow a little bit – but not too big of course! Just big enough to be a start. So that we are all informed and empowered to take part in the transition.
