"Can Alternative Economics Pay The Bills?"
Basement Project Space,
Camden Quay, Cork
November 30th 6pm - 8pm
Confirmed Speakers:
Cork Free Choice - Caroline Robinson
Future Orchard Trust - Elaine Garde
Grace Hamilton
Kinsale Transition town - Jeannie Timony
U.C.C- Bridget Carroll
WWOOF Ireland – Annie
We also have a number of other really interesting speakers, but we have to confirm the details with them.
To kick off the event, each speaker is invited to give a short (approx. 5 mins) presentation which can take any form. If you would like to give a powerpoint presentation then send us the file before hand so we can have it ready to go. Each speaker is asked to include in their presentation a question which might relate either to their own businesses/organisation or a related issue. Following the presentations, the speakers and the audience will be divided into groups to discuss these questions, with the objective of turning up some interesting and possibly useful answers.
We also have one further request, if you are producers or have any research material that you would like to bring to the shop to exchange for Deblooms, we would be very grateful! You can then use this money to purchase goods which others have contributed to our micro-economy.
You can find out more information about us and a full events timetable for the rest of "Just Keep Shopping (everything will be okay)" on our blog www.sociablescience.wordpress.com. We would be delighted to see you at any of our other events or during the opening hours of the shop. We look forward to hearing from you and to meeting you on the 30th.
Regards,
Jan/Bernardine
