In the face of increasing social, political, and environmental crises, it’s becoming increasingly clear that we need to transform our economies systems so that they are just and sustainable by design.
This event aims to lay the foundations for state-wide economic systems change movement by bringing together a wide range of actors and organizations from across California to connect, learn from one another and identify potential avenues for radical collaboration moving forward.
