The Simplicity Forum is an invitational leadership alliance of academics and authors, activist and artists, educators and entrepreneurs who seek to promote simplicity in our work, and seek to practice it in our lives. We are working together to honor simple, just and sustainable ways of life.
Simplicity is a growing trend in the United States and other industrial countries. Millions of people (by some estimates over 50 million) are trying to slow down, work meaningfully, be engaged in relationships, family and community, get out of debt and reduce wasteful consumption. Each of them feels alone. All of them do what they can as individuals in a commercial climate pushing them to consume more. The Simplicity Forum honors these valiant personal efforts -- and intends to organize this invisible constituency to actively work towards changing both the culture and the policies that drive over-work and over-consumption.
