In collaboration with our friends at The Difference Incubator, Give Where You Live Foundation CEO, Bill Mithen recently presented at the 2024 ChangeFest conference about a new venture we’re working on together called ‘Neighbourhood Economics’.
We know our current economic system is not serving all people, or places, well.
To create a fairer community, we are working on building and supporting systems that address the urgent needs of people where inequity is consigning them to lives of poverty and disadvantage.
In our community, there are some neighborhoods where people are facing higher rates of unemployment and struggling with food and housing.
Our dream is for an economic future that is regenerative, that shares wealth and includes everyone.
Neighbourhood Economics is about shifting towards locally-led, regenerative economies, allowing more people to participate fully in their community, with ownership, shared prosperity and community connection at its centre.
We’re looking forward to bringing you further details over the coming months.
