Diana Finch will give a talk based on her new book, ‘Value Beyond Money’. There will also be short presentations on Degrowth and Doughnut Economics.
Drawing on the lessons learned as the Bristol Pound’s managing director, Diana examines the theory and practice behind many new economic ideas. What really is ‘money’? Can we imagine an economic system that prioritises non-financial value? Can we create a post market economy?
Finch’s work on the Bristol Pound and her experience in the non-profit sector led her to believe that the economic system is the cause of many environmental and social challenges. She wants to see changes made through grassroots initiatives that encourage people to think differently.
You can listen to an interview with Diana Finch on the Sustainable Frome show on Frome FM Monday 14 October and available to listen the day after on MixCloud herew:
