Reclaim the Economy Week

Global week of action for people and planet. Our economies are driving inequality and environmental devastation. Reclaim the Economy Week is a moment to unite to demand an economy that puts people and planet first. Whether your vision is degrowth or doughnuts, let's come together.

Reclaim the Economy Week

I’ve been drifting in and out of Peter Joseph’s work ever since I first saw The Zeitgeist Movement documentary, and around the same time I discovered the Venus Project and the wild‑genius ideas of Buckminster Fuller. Those visions of a resource‑based, collaborative future stuck with me, and they keep feeling as urgent today as they did back then.

Episode 56 “The Capitalist Roots of War” dives deep into why the current market‑driven system breeds conflict, inequality, and environmental collapse, and it sketches how a community‑built, post‑scarcity economy could start to replace it.

If you care about these issues, give the episode a listen (or skim the transcript). Have a nice long walk or the treadmill and let the conversation spark some fresh thinking. 🖖

Some buildings hold history.
Casa do Impacto, in Lisbon, holds possibility.

Inside this former convent, educators, entrepreneurs, and youth innovators are turning imagination into infrastructure.

A living example of how social enterprise can rehearse democracy.

🚀 Duales Digital-Currency-System mit GNU Taler: Events + Nachbarschaften = starke lokale Wirtschaftskreisläufe! 💰 Festivals als Einstieg, dauerhafte Community-Währung als Ziel. Privacy-by-Design trifft auf echte Gemeinschaftsbildung 🤝 #GNUTaler #LokalWährung #Nachbarschaft #DigitalCurrency #CommunityEconomy 🏘️✨

Eine gaaaanz grobe Skizze der Idee: https://goern.name/de/posts/lokaltaler/

GNU Taler-basiertes duales Digital-Currency-System: Konzeptionelle Beschreibung

1. Einleitung Wir?? … sind eine Gruppe von Technik-Enthusiasten, die davon überzeugt sind, dass digitale Innovation im Dienst lokaler Gemeinschaften stehen sollte. Als interdisziplinäres Team aus Entwicklern, Ökonomen und Community-Organizers experimentieren wir mit nachhaltigen Technologien, die soziale Vernetzung fördern und lokale Wirtschaftskreisläufe stärken. Unser Antrieb ist es, Alternativen zu globalen Tech-Monopolen zu schaffen und dabei gleichzeitig echte, messbare Verbesserungen für Nachbarschaften und Gemeinschaften zu erzielen. Mit diesem Projekt wollen wir zeigen, wie Privacy-by-Design-Technologien wie GNU Taler nicht nur technisch überzeugen, sondern auch gesellschaftlichen Wandel vorantreiben können.

Dear fedizens, your help is appreciated;
I’m looking for new projects.

About me. I work on #DigitalSovereignty, Commons and #CommunityEconomy from developing strategies for organisations to be more in line with their mission and values, to research existing free/libre software and open source solutions and communities; from internal migration of in-house solutions to networked migrations to value-aligned social networks.

Maybe to be prepared, we don't only need to have sufficient stocks and a battery powered radio, but more local communities producing whatever are our first needs. For me it connects to the #CommunityEconomy, with local energy grids in the hands of neighbours, telecommunications infrastructure that is owned and governed by your local community, food coops and community supported agriculture.

With @commonsnetwork we're working on the #CommunityEconomy, an economy for and by the people through initiatives that are local-first, with shared ownership and self-directed, inclusive decision-making.
