What Works: Opportunity for All

You are here

Date: 
19 March, 2015

12pm - 1:30pm Pacific Time

BALLE's search for the best social innovation of our time takes us to the people for whom the mainstream economy has never worked. Low income and communities of color have a rich legacy of advancing economic principles of fairness, sustainability, and democracy. These communities, who have historically been oppressed, have taken resourcefulness and creativity to a new level and will be our guides to a new economy.

This webinar is the first of a monthly series shedding light on What Works. The aim of the series is to give Localist leaders tools and insights to replicate and build upon proven solutions towards an economy with equity at its core. Hear about work being done to eliminate systemic barriers, invest in good jobs, and create a democratic economy where workers have just as many rights as those providing the capital. Learn how you and your organization can create thriving economies that align workers, anchor institutions, and independent business for shared prosperity. Participate in this important discussion about what we can learn from traditionally marginalized communities and why these communities must be removed from the margins for all of us to truly prosper.

SPEAKERS

  • Crystal German, Vice President of Economic Inclusion, Cincinnato USA Regional Chamber of Commerce's Minority Business Accelerator
