Our publications
We’re working with our network of specialists to produce a series of books, eventually covering the whole range of our topics, above. They’re the opposite of coffee table books, in that they’re meant for people who are serious about a topic and want to do it themselves. They’ll help you do things like building and installing solar hot water systems, compost toilets or solar electrical and battery systems, as well as making your own natural soaps, essential oils or herbal remedies. We hope they become well-thumbed after being used in workshops, gardens and kitchens. See our range of titles here.
NonCorporate.org
NonCorporate.org is our sister site, for people who don’t want to support multinational corporations any more. We’ve put everything in one place and made it easy to switch for (almost) everything you need. Find out how corporate your life is by getting your ‘NonCorporate score’, then switch to non-corporate providers for all the essentials of life.
What we want to achieve
We want to help build a new economy, and we’re happy to collaborate with organisations, businesses and individuals who would like to do the same. We want to do this by helping more people switch their custom to the new economy; helping more people to gain skills to work in the new economy; bringing key people in the new economy together; interviewing new economy actors; establishing a national mutual credit trading scheme; and developing a new governance idea. See here for details.
