Event Description

EXPLORING LOCAL CURRENCIES

tools for building community and business in tough times

Thursday 27th & Friday 28th August 2009.
Connolly Hall, Guilford Tce (off Hill St), Thorndon, Wellington

The current money system based on debt and centralised control is not only killing the planet and destroying communities but is currently imploding on its inherent unsustainability.

How can we create our own decentralized currencies that honour our values, are interest free, and build real wealth and community wellbeing?

This workshop will fully inform you on the working knowledge of 3 key models that are being used today and how these can be initiated in your own community, town or organization immediately following this workshop.

• TIMEBANKING
• LOCAL EXCHANGE & TRADING SYSTEMS (LETS)
• GENUINE WEALTH SYSTEM

THURSDAY 27 Introductory Session. 2 times to choose from 8.30am – 12.pm OR 7pm – 9.30pm.

FRIDAY 28 Full Day 8.30am – 5.00pm.

Note: Participation in the introductory session on Thursday is highly recommended.

Fees: Thursday only $30: Full Programme (Thursday and Friday) $60 - $100 sliding scale.
Subsidy available for students / beneficiaries / hardship - please enquire. Payment in local currency optional.

Morning and afternoon teas provided. BYO lunch.
