Meenakshi, can you talk more about 'non-monetary currencies' — or show me a place at your site where you spell this out or show examples of it? Many thanks, Anitra<br>

Thanks for sharing, Ashish. This is quite interesting, especially because Goonj's work is very close to this thought, creating a barter between two new non monetary currencies; urban surplus material and people's efforts, wisdom and resources, to address their
 own neglected community issues. Across India the most missed out people self prioritise their problems and co-create solutions that are evolved from their own contexts, knowledge, efforts and natural resources.         </div>
<div>Anitra - Thanks for this insightful piece. For development and disaster response work across the world, enabling and nourishing new non monetary currencies in this time of economic slowdown, is also strategically crucial.  More

<div><font size="4" face="verdana, sans-serif"><span style="color:rgb(68,68,68)">If money is the lynchpin of the contemporary capitalist order then it is imperative that an alternative to that world is imagined and crafted outside the constraints of money.
 In her path-breaking new book, “Beyond Money, A Post-Capitalist Strategy”, Anitra Nelson lays the ideological foundation of a post-money society based on real, non-monetary, social and ecological values that define a new order committed to fulfilling people’s
 basic needs. In this exclusive article for RED, Nelson provides an insight into her revolutionary ideas essential for designing a world without socio-economic inequality and crippling environmental stresses.</span><br>
