Description

Over the recent weeks the concern we all share under the threat of a collapsing economy is indisputable. Our trust on types of authority and decision-making is being challenged. Everywhere, people discuss one thing only: What do we do now?

What tools do we have as a society to find communal and collective solutions to the social, economic and political problems that put us under siege? How do we come to consensus around all these different ideas?

We are looking for practical solutions to practical problems through simultaneous conversations around many issues: alternative economy, the creation of jobs, new areas of entrepreneurship, local food production and sustainability. We are also looking for answers around questions of democratic representation, consensus building, and decision making, among other things.

The aim of this open, casual event on Monday April 8th, is to bring together existing networks
and build new ones, so that we can learn from each other and work together for the common
good.

Among the things offered to discussion is the organisation of an OpenSpace event for April 13th.
