Events - Sep 2020

ALTwork is six free sessions for people under 30 with entrepreneurs, artists and visionaries. Make an alternative future with meaningful work that values your skills: 18+ speakers, live music - see you there!⁠
⁠
Each session will offer time to meet other participants and people involved in transformative businesses. Some may offer 'taster' and volunteer opportunities, as well as paid internships. And some can offer help in guiding you to start up your own transformative business. ⁠
⁠
Everyone will be able to stay connected through a discussion forum platform. Come for all six sessions, dip in and out, just do one - it's all good. ⁠
⁠
ALTwork Sep 1-3 and 8-10, 6pm-8pm⁠ via Zoom. Reserve your spot today - www.altwork.live

The Regenerative Devon Summit on 7th-9th July was a convergence of amazing and interesting people, working to transform our regional economy.

More needs to be done to help us #build-back-better, to transform the economy of Devon and the South West to become more resilient, regenerative, bioregionally appropriate, to meet the challenge of the climate emergency, to respond to the urgencies of equality and justice.

So, how do we build a regenerative economy in Devon? Together! Councillors, officers, entrepreneurs, investors, community organisers, activists.
