If we are to enjoy a socially and environmentally sustainable future, our current economic system needs to change. But to what? What could a thriving economy with the wellbeing of people and the planet at its core look like?
And how would it work?
We don’t need a crystal ball or to travel far to find out, as there are already so many examples of this new economy right here on our door step!
In partnership with The Goodness Inc, the Centre for Social Change is organising a day-long tour to visit a range of enterprises that provide us with clues and insights to a fairer and more sustainable economy. These enterprises
are tackling some of the most important issues we face, including food production, waste management, social inclusion and energy production.
The tour will begin at the Centre for Social Change in the Valley with an overview of some of the innovative economic systems already operating around South East Queensland and then followed with visits to a range of enterprises
leading the way in building a new economy including:
An urban agriculture initiative
A sustainable industrial park
-
- An innovative waste management organisation
- A renewable energy provider right here in the city
Support our campaign to raise funds for this inspiring, educational event. If you donate $30 or more, you get access to a seat on the bus and lunch.
Come along! Bring your friends and be inspired! Get ready for a journey of economic discovery with a difference!
