How can we create successful economic models centred in trust, cooperation, ethical practice and wellbeing, whilst simultaneously providing financial sustenance to support ourselves, our communities and wider society? How can we design regenerative businesses that support the health of both people and the planet?
This package brings together a set of nine talks and workshops from GEN Europe’s November 2021 online event Ecovillage Economics: Abundance in Community where experts and practitioners discussed these questions and more. Go beyond what you think you know about economics: hear from ecovillagers about the real experience of living in a totally shared economy; meet community-based entrepreneurs who have started their regenerative businesses within communities; discover the gift economy; and learn the ins and outs of community experiences with pensions, savings, investments and more.
The package features the following recorded sessions:
Note: this package contains recordings from a past live event. Some of the workshops may contain instructions for breakout activities which took place in the live event.
The price for access to this content is 20 EUR.

If you are just getting to know GEN, we recommend you start with the GEN Intro course which will give you the frame of how the network and organisation flow.
A live course will be offered at set times and invites you to engage with a facilitator and other participants. A self-paced course means you can engage in the content as your schedule allows. We also offer courses where you engage in the content yourself and then join gently facilitated group discussions to connect with others.
Visit the Community Events page to see what is available or contact your region.
