A small group of activists, intellectuals, organizers, practitioners and students, all engaged in promoting an alternative vision to democratize the economy convened a Maine-based Economic Democracy Conference on November 10th 2018. We are inspired to create a platform for sharing ideas, work, visions, and lived experience from diverse perspectives in the movement—based in community collaborations and revitalizing our local economies, here in Maine and regionally.
Let’s create an economy and environment for Maine people by beginning a dialogue on what we want our economy to be, who we want it to serve, and HOW to get there.
