My name is Carlotta Luisa Kelber. I work with organisations, researchers and mission-driven initiatives exploring how we can organise business and production in socially and ecologically just ways. My work connects governance innovation, participatory research and practice-based insight to support post-growth transformation across sectors.
I am always ready to reimagine value with you.
Research and Consulting for Post-Growth Transitions
We are facing ecological, social and economic crises that cannot be solved within growth-dependent business models. Meaningful change requires rethinking how organisations are owned, governed, and how they create value. I support organisations, consultants and initiatives that seek alternatives to conventional growth-oriented models. My work focuses on governance innovation, steward-ownership, collective and small-scale production models, and participatory approaches to sustainability transitions.
I work at the interface of research and practice: translating academic insights into practical tools, workshops and applied frameworks that help organisations navigate post-growth transformation
Production, Materiality and Practice-Based Insight
My background in fashion design, tailoring and textile work gives me a deep understanding of materiality, production processes and craft-based systems. This practical foundation informs my research into alternative production and value creation models.
I bring a rare combination of:
hands-on production knowledge
sustainability and circularity expertise
and advanced research into governance and post-growth economics
This allows me to bridge design, production, strategy and systemic transformation in a way that goes far beyond conventional sustainability consulting.
Trainings and Workshops
I love sharing my knowledge through trainings, workshops, talks, and lectures. I specialize in post- and degrowth, helping teams and institutions understand principles of circularity, sustainability, post-growth futures, and the next steps in building a sustainable future. Together, let’s raise awareness and inspire action.
Based in Amsterdam, but happy to help out in the entire world.
