What would it take to build the economy we need, one that works for people, place, and planet?
New Economy Week is a public exploration of creative resistance – an opportunity to shine a light on the thousands upon thousands of efforts that everyday people are making right now to build a new kind of economy.
In Canada, October 13-19 is also Co-op Week, which is a perfect opportunity to celebrate the contributions co-ops make to a more sustainable and democratic economy.
The New Economy Coalition (NEC) will be hosting live keynote panels, publishing powerful essays, and spotlighting member events (open-houses, info-sessions, film screenings, panel discussions, pot-lucks, etc.) from across the US and Canada — with the goal of raising the profile of those doing this work and diving into some of the questions that stand between us and a New Economy.
