More on the New Economy Working Group (Feb 5, 2010)

As most visitors to our Great Turning Initiative website know, David has been writing extensively about and advocating for the great turning, a positive future, and a  "new economy" for decades.  The New Economy Working Group he co-chairs with John Cavanagh from the Institute for Policy Studies, was established in early 2009, as more and more families were affected by the failing economy and people were growing increasingly distraught and angry - and eager to hear and be part of a new living economy story. 

The NEWGroup website, launched last week, now includes framing documents for Living Wealth Indicators, one of 10 key areas of focus - and action!  Visit the site regularly to see the unfolding of the New Economy story and find resources for action. (Each week, a new section will be opened for another of the 10 key areas.)

On his website, David has created a new section, New Economy Agenda, with more of his latest musings and articles, and regularly adds articles and presentations. Check these out:
