NEW ECONOMY
As the COVID-19 pandemic spread, we began to examine our economy and the ways in which it can improve in order for our communities to be more secure in times of need. This ongoing conversation ensures that future changes will continue to provide aid to our communities. Here are some of our values:
Worker-centered
We believe the success of the economy and each of its institutions should be assessed by how well they achieve the collective wellbeing, independence, dignity and growth of workers.
Innovative
We believe the path to a new economy requires courageous conversations, reflection, new and unconventional ideas, data-informed analysis, transparency, community and worker representation and multi-sector collaboration.
Sustainable
We believe an economy designed to achieve wellbeing must prioritize the natural environment. Conventional extractive economic practices have destroyed many species and endangered all life. The building of sustainable, resilient communities calls for a deep transformation in the way we marshal Earth's resources, produce and exchange goods and services, and live our personal lives.
Real-World Improvement
We will empower and engage workers to create models, enduring business organizations, and policies that dismantle financial insecurity, eliminate poverty, build community wealth, and prohibit exploitation.
Inclusive
We affirm that our efforts are inclusive and prioritize marginalized communities. We respect and encourage intergenerational and multi-racial perspectives and support the intersectionalities of individuals and communities.
