Godelieve Spaas

Together with her research group, students, artists and entrepreneurs Godelieve co-creates, unveils and proposes alternative economic narratives, playing fields and organizing principles to increase diversity in organizational and entrepreneurial models and realities with a view to the development of a fairer, more sustainable and robust entrepreneurial space. She researches economies based on togetherness, belonging and care, fulfilling the beautiful needs of all life on earth. She writes about economies that are contextual and inclusive, hence diverse and dynamic by nature. She combines art, science, practices and indigenous knowledge and shares her work via open source podcasts, articles, (lecture) performances and dialogues.

Godelieve also contributes to the development of new business such as Herenboeren. These farming communities are  based on three principles: nature driven, socially connected and economically embedded. She is a board member and associate director of the Pari Center in Tuscany Italy, where she organizes and participates in dialogues and courses in between art, science and the sacred.
