The Devon New Economy Working group
A conference was held in April
this year to look at new economic thinking and programmes in
Devon. A wealth of different projects and programmes were described
and it was clear that Devon is at the forefront of new thinking as
far as economic ideas are concerned. Following the conference
a working group was set up, convened by Gerald Conyngham, a
member of Sustainable Crediton. The group have decided to
pursue the idea of setting up a new organisation to promote and
take forward some of these ideas, as well as to share experience
and encourage networking. They are now seeking funding to carry out
a feasibility study to work out the best way forward. Transition
Towns such as Sustainable Crediton will be consulted and involved
in this initial work.
