[P2P-F] EXCHANGE & FINANCE FOR A NEW ECONOMY with THOMAS GRECO

[Kevin Flanagan]

24 June  — 1 July

In the face of the ongoing global economic and financial crisis and
increasing centralization of power, it is becoming ever more urgent that
communities take the initiative to implement mechanisms that assure the
resilience and sustainability of their local economies. Of fundamental
necessity are the provision of non-bank financing and locally controlled
currencies and moneyless payment mechanisms that enable communities to
control their own destiny and quality of life, and local enterprises to
thrive.

Over the past three decades, a great many complementary currencies and
exchange schemes have sprung up, gained some degree of acceptance and
notoriety, then faded away.

This workshop will focus in on the reasons why none of them has become a
significant factor in their community economies, and uncover the principles
of design and implementation that need to be applied to make exchange
alternatives more effective, robust, and scalable.
