Kate Raworth

Raworth drew a doughnut: an inner ring of social floors nobody should fall below, an outer ring of ecological ceilings the planet cannot exceed, and the safe space between them as the target.

She worked at the United Nations Development Programme and at Oxfam before Oxford, and several cities, Amsterdam among them, have adopted the framework officially.
