New Economy Week 2013

Seven days of action toward a more just and sustainable world

New Economy Week is a week of celebration designed to shine a light on the movement to build a new economy – an economy that is restorative to people, place, and the planet. From October 12-18, we will be highlighting events, actions, reports, works of art, and other projects that promote the principles of democracy, justice, and sustainability.

From October 12-18, the New Economy Coalition will be highlighting events, actions, reports, works of art, and other projects all across the United States and Canada.  By calling attention to the thousands of things people are doing right now to build a new kind of economy, we hope to inspire more participation in this movement and catalyze a national conversation on the need for deep, systemic change.

CCEDNet is a partner of New Economy Week and member of the New Economy Coalition.
