Innovation Exchange: working with your community to shape your economy

Register now

Delivering a comprehensive and practical local economic strategy is difficult enough. Working with your residents and communities to develop those plans is an even bigger ask.

But it’s only when councils get their communities on board that they can go beyond the damaging dogma of “jobs and growth at any cost”.

Wider engagement is essential for any council considering new economic approaches, including doughnut economics, the foundational economy, community wealth-building and the well-being agenda.

Join us for this session and you’ll discover:

• How councils have worked successfully with residents and the radical outcomes they’ve achieved
• What you need to do to supercharge your community’s energy and interest in the local economy
• The practicalities of handing over economic power to residents through asset transfer and other methods

Participation in New Local events is free and exclusive to members of our Network. If you would like to find out more, please contact Stephanie.
