Supercommunities: A handbook for the 21st century – hinnat ja saatavuus

By 2050, half the planet will be living on a knife edge. Communities cannot afford to wait for cash-strapped governments to address inequality and climate change. But how can they afford to take action themselves? Cities, towns, neighbourhoods, and villages can and must become supercommunities - ecosystems able to sustain their natural, human, and industrial capitals.

It removes friction from collaboration so that local people become stakeholders and local organisations work together effectively. Powered by social trading, a supercommunity leverages progressive economic ideas and digital tools for local wellness. Today, a tiny fraction of global investment is into social impact.
