Decentralisation & Alternative Economics

Panel Discussion on Decentralisation, New Economy and Blockchain with Brett Scott, Duncan McCann and Jaya Klara Brekke at the advaya event Alternative Economies: Decentralisation & People Power.

We all know that our current economic system isn't working. It is an economy based on ravaging the Earth's finite resources and on immense social injustice. To ensure a more democratic, sustainable and prosperous future we need to look to radical, ethical solutions that go beyond the debt-growth trap. We need to find an economic system where ecological sustainability, social justice, and financial stability go hand in hand: an economy that meets the needs of all, not just the privileged few, and allows us to thrive.

At this advaya event, Duncan McCann, Brett Scott and Jaya Klara Brekke, three leaders in the fields, discussed our current reality, what got us to this point and where we are headed through through talks, a panel discussion and Q&A. We learnt more about the role we can play as individuals in turning the tide, the role of the community, localism, and the de-growth approach as we take back control.
