Regenerative Economies
You must first login to purchase this item.
Overview

We are living under an extractive economy that regards everything on mother earth, including people, as resources to be exploited until there is nothing left. It depletes resources, profits off of injustice, and thrives off of the worst possible expressions of human behavior. Its crimes are too numerous to list – everything from chattel slavery to the climate crisis trace back to this unspeakably inhumane approach to existing on this planet. We must envision and create a future where economic systems are rooted in justice, equity, and sustainability, dismantling the structures that work every moment of the day to prevent self-determination and liberation for Black communities. Many communities have already begun this imperative work, and their victories can and must be replicated far and wide, for the wellbeing of all. This program provides tools to create such a future by exploring the transformative potential of Just Transition frameworks and regenerative economics. Through this program, participants will develop comprehensive action plans to establish autonomous, community-governed systems thriving on regenerative principles. These plans will focus on fostering economic and social resilience, ensuring that communities are equipped to face future challenges and create sustainable, equitable solutions.
