The Restorative Economy
The Restorative Economy is the process of assisting the recovery of communities that have been degraded, damaged, or excluded by the current economic system. This is part of a global movement, also known as the Solidarity Economy, which aims to build a just and sustainable economy where we prioritize people and the planet over endless profit and growth. This system provides real alternatives such as creating democratic spaces where all community voices are heard; promoting cooperative and inclusive relationships; and building models of community wealth and ownership to leverage joint economic power to collectively assert rights and exercise political power.
The restorative economic system focuses on the process of building economic practices and institutions based on the values of equity, cooperation, solidarity, economic and political democracy.
