A degrowth festival

ALTSHIFT 2026 // More info coming soon <3

Once again, this year we come together with friends and allies from the climate and social justice movements — those fighting at the intersections of anti-capitalism, anti-racism, feminism, anti-fascism, Indigenous sovereignty, and workers' struggles.

Join us in the forests of East Germany for seven days of resistance, renewal, and reimagination. In this temporary community, we co-create spaces for critical, embodied, transformative and playful education around post-growth cultures and practices. We’ll not only explore the many dimensions of post-growth but embody them—through collective care, common strategizing, radical solidarity and rest. Expect mind-tickling conversations, hands-on workshops, roundtables, art, music and performances that inebriate the senses, alongside nourishing food we cook and share together.
