Beyond the Left and Right: Building a New Economy in Uncertain Times

Imagine a world where everyone has access to the basic necessities of life (food, clothing, housing, healthcare and education), where we all have an enjoyable job with a living wage, and where the economy is based on cooperation instead of competition.

Join us in a day of discussion, collaborative workshops and expert-led panels. Together we will learn practical steps and strategies that local governments, businesses, community organizations, and individuals are each using to  transform our economy–an economy of the people, by the people, for the people.
