Based on the Human Scale Development framework of economist Manfred Max-Neef, one of the forefathers of the current wave of new economic thinking, this workshop offers the chance to come together and dive deeply into the challenges we are facing and gain a new perspective on what is possible. It includes practical tools to engage your community, thought provoking presentations, group discussions and fun interactive exercises that will equip you to be an effective change-­‐maker in your community. In this workshop, you'll learn:

• Models that integrate economics, ecology, and wellbeing
• How concepts like 'reciprocity' and 'relocalisation' fit into a new economic paradigm
• How to incorporate the concept of 'Fundamental Human Needs' into project design
• A range of practical tools for catalyzing local innovation and enterprise

Workshop leaders Inez Aponte and Jay Tompt are based in Totnes, and deeply involved in a number of economic regeneration projects withTransition Town Totnes and other community groups.
