Grassroots Economics is a non-profit foundation that seeks to support communities to take charge of their own livelihoods and economic future. We focus on community development through commons and are dedicated to helping communities realize and share their abundance through Economic Commons with Instruments like Community Asset Vouchers and Commitment Pooling that can act as a medium of exchange and commons. While core beneficiaries of our programs include businesses and people living in informal settlements as well as rural areas, the documentation and tools have been broadly applied worldwide.
It is tremendously important to us that people take, use, build on and share what we've found to be useful. Join us in demonstrating, disseminating, designing & curating the best practices to empower communities to create and manage their own financial instruments.
