We have come together with the wish to learn more about our current economic situation and alternative models that exist in theory and practise.  Each month, a small number of people from the group research a particular topic and present this to a public audience in an informal manner, as part of our learning process.  We aim to bring our learning together after a 6 month learning and presentation phase to begin to implement something practically within our area.
