New Systems: Possibilities and Proposals - Video Panel CommonBound 2016
Channel: New Economy Coalition
Date: 2016-08-03

Want to understand the alternatives to business as usual? We know the current system does exactly what it was designed to do: line corporate pockets at the expense of real people’s health and livelihoods, destroying the environment while fueling the war machine. But we also know that another world is possible. Many models for radically different, sustainable, inclusive and democratic societies exist and we have invited a few of their proponents to present their ideas, debate the options and answer your questions about what a better world looks like in detail. Join us for a deep dive into next system solutions for a better future!
