#CommunityWealthBuilding
What if... land, property, public spending benefited communities, supported fair jobs and shared wealth with many not just a few?
Just Transition Wakefield has been exploring that with Unite Community Leeds & Wakefield and Climate Action Leeds and shared the story of "Wealth In Our Hands", an event building a coalition for Community Wealth Building...

A new report from #cles. On the tin it says "A new vision for community wealth and power" - while maybe it isn't quite that, there are some sound things in there. For example:
"Rather than prioritising high growth and frontier sectors, which can realistically only hope to support the economy of a few places, the emphasis should be on a just transition within the everyday economy."

I'm focused on practical action toward an economy that genuinely works for people, place and planet- #communitywealthbuilding However, it is worth debunking the wrong starting points.

A #wellbeingeconomy is a post capitalist goal which builds wellbeing for all. #communitywealthbuilding is the practical means to achieve that with #democraticeconomy at its heart.
All progressive agendas need to practically do something, otherwise they are just virtue signalling. So when some use terms like #wellbeingeconomy, we need deep practice such as #communitywealthbuilding to keep WE on a true economic change action focussed path.

#wellbeingeconomy can't keep circling as an idea. It needs to start practically landing on net zero, new/transitioned industry, shifting economic ownership and ending wealth extraction. #communitywealthbuilding is already on the case by delivering that essential economic rewiring

Reflections on #CLES #communitywealthbuilding summit
✊️Movement is strong
⏩️ Pushing on. Early CWB adopters are building on successes.
💰Must maintain focus on wealth extraction and system change to economic model
🙂CWB benefits from strategic framing within #justtransition/#economictransformation #wellbeingeconomy
🎤we need to keep singing about successes.
🏴 🏴, Northern Ireland and city regions in England are important for showing what can done at scale.
💪keep being bold and brave!
