SUMMARY:Joy in Enough: Awakening to a New Economics
DESCRIPTION:Sorry this event is now SOLD OUT\nEconomic growth can’t go on for ever\, so what’s the alternative?\nAnd how can churches be at the cutting edge of change?\nAll who are interested in learning about and discussing a genuinely sustainable economy are invited to join A Rocha UK\, CEL and SPEAK at a ‘Joy in Enough’ day conference on Saturday 29 March 2014\, from 11am to 5pm at Carrs Lane Church Centre\, Birmingham B4 7SX (close to Birmingham New Street). \nThe keynote speaker will be Dan O’Neill\, Lecturer in ecological economics at the University of Leeds\, and chief economist at the Center for the Advancement of the Steady State Economy (CASSE). \nThemes covered \n\nReform of the financial sector; changing national economic goals and how to measure progress; investment in low-carbon economic activities that employ people in ways that contribute meaningfully to planetary well-being.\nThe big trans-boundary questions of limiting resource use\, tackling emissions targets\, and minimising the production of waste.\nTackling social inequality and promoting work-time reductions and work sharing to challenge the idea that we can only solve unemployment through growth.\nPromoting conditions that can improve family and local community relationships; challenging consumerism.\nThe imperatives in scripture and theology for this new kind of economics\, and the implied implications for the churches’ mission.\n\nCost will be £20 (£15 CEL and A Rocha members)\, £15 ‘early bird’ price for all before end of January.  (Bargain £5 price for SPEAK network and other young people under the age of 26.) \nPlease visit the CEL website for more information and booking forms. \nDownload a conference flyer to circulate information about this event. \n
