Klimabundmødets
seminar om økonomi
Økonomisk
samarbejde kan give adgang til de højere hængende frugter
Klimabundmødets seminar om bæredygtig økonomi
den 8. december 2009, præsenterede os for Windows of Hope. Her
handlede økonomi om livskvalitet, lokale valutaer, social og
etisk bankvirksomhed, frygten for penge, lokal samhandel, ejerformer
og økonomiske tankesæt der fremmer bæredygtig udvikling.
Impulser der er i samspil med temaet "Kan økonomi tjene
en økologisk udvikling i samfundet?" på Merkurs
generalforsamlings-seminar den 10. april 2010.
Seminaret
indgangsbøn handlede om bevidste fællesskaber
* If we want to change the economy, we have to give power to our dreams,
our communities and strengthen the relationships between all people,
who want to create a sustainable future.
* Sustainable economy is connected to our social life, to the relations
between people and communities. We don't have to wait for the politicians.
We got to build more resilient communities ourselves.
At udvikle
bæredygtige økonomier er en stor udfordring. Der er ingen
lette løsninger, men mange muligheder. Herunder finder du seminarets
program, PowerPoints fra fem af oplæggene og ideoplægget
"økonomisk
udforsknings- og samarbejdsproces", som er mine tanker om,
hvordan man kan arbejde videre med udviklingen af bæredygtige
økonomier.
Fem PowerPoints
om Bæredygtig Økonomi
1.
Economy that leads to enjoyment of life within sustainable ecosystems.
Circulation economics presupposes communication between economics,
natural sciences and humanities. Circulation economics is based upon
an organic worldview, cooperation, circular value chains and value
pluralism. The end in circulation economics is to establish an economy
that leads to enjoyment of life within sustainable ecosystems.
by Ove Jakobsen, Professor at Centre for Ecological Economics and
Ethics, Bodø Graduate School of Business, Norway
2.
A Pluralistic Perspective on Money
How can we build a bridge from the unsustainable to a sustainable
economy? And what is the role of money? In a world of rising complexity,
the singularity of money gets to its limitations. Monetary systems
need further differentiation. A Carbon Currency, Regional and other
Complementary Currencies are blueprints for a paradigm shift in economics.
by Ludwig Schuster, architect, researcher and project manager for
sustainability, Berlin (Germany)
3.
Experience of the ecovillage movement
The lesson of ecovillages is that to break the gravitational pull
of the globalised economy, we need to create what has been called
'Economics of Solidarity' that involves not only community currencies
but also community ownership of assets, social enterprises and a transformation
of values in terms of what constitutes wealth.
by Jonathan Dawson, Sustainability Educator, Board member of Global
Ecovillage Network, living in Findhorn Ecovillage.
4.
Banks and their function in society - failed and sustainable models
for banking
"We experienced the most servere financial turmoil since the
1930's depression. What are the backgrounds in the macroeconomic thinking?
Why did the banks fall and how can we establish a more sound and societal
oriented financial system? Can mainstream learn from social banks?"
By Lars Pehrson, managing director, Merkur Cooperative Bank, Denmark's
leading sustainable bank.
5.
Building local resilience in existing towns
During the last few years more than 200 Transition Towns have been
established as a response to peak oil and climate change. Two Master-students
in Social Entrepreneurship will report from a study tour to England,
about this contribution to building new economies.
By Erik Lemcke, Roskilde University, Denmark.

Økonomisk
udforsknings- og samarbejdsproces
Efter seminaret blev jeg inspireret til at inviterer virksomheder,
organisationer og fællesskaber til en udforsknings- og samarbejdsproces
der sigter efter, at høste de højere hængende
frugter. Etableringen af økosamfund, bæredygtige virksomheder
og grønne organisationer ser jeg som øer af lavt hængende
frugter. For at kunne høste de højere hængende
frugter (etableringen af bæredygtige økonomiske kredsløb)
forudsætter det at vi udvikler samarbejdet og udvekslingen mellem
de bæredygtige fællesskaber.
Håber du bliver inspireret til økonomisk nyhandling.
Bæredygtige hilsner
