Intentional Community as a New Economy Lever

Log in to save this to your schedule, view media, leave feedback and see who's attending!

This interactive training will ask the question: How can we strengthen the new economy movement by living communally and sharing resources? We will look at historical examples of communities that have served as economic refuges for activists, and at ways that poor people can organize for their most basic needs to be met cooperatively. We will also look at identity-based communities as a way to strengthen and provide safety zones for traditionally marginalized groups.
