Regional Economic Communities
This website presents a complete – and radically new – paradigm for regional communities, linking together commercial, sustainable and social aspects. It describes a means for normal citizens to jointly finance local, sustainably-run businesses. It then introduces a marketplace with its own alternative currency, the Grok, which is independent of national currency and whose value is linked to the assets owned.
While thus apparently being a primarily economic paradigm, its essence and motivation come from a spiritual perspective and in practice great value is put on the way we interact with each other, and to integrating personal growth and the furthering of interpersonal skills into the daily working life.
The external forms have been carefully designed to be practicable. In particular, there is no need to wait or work for political or legal change; this concept works within the existing legal framework – you can start right now.
Actively caring for our own livelihoods – now and for the future:
- We finance regional companies.
- We use our own complementary currency – the Grok.
- We decide and act in ways that allow us to look forward to the consequences.
