Ownership Matters (newsletter)

A free biweekly newsletter with a focus on the emerging landscape of founders and funders around impact investing, racial equity, and the solidarity economy. 

Overview

One of the pillars of a new, human-scale economy is the effort to build up ownership, both public and private. This process must be both reparative and regenerative, in order to address the history of disinvestment and extraction in so many communities. 

This work of building is going on in many places and in many different ways but not in a connected way. Ownership Matters aims to help the players in this emerging ecosystem find each other more easily and to collaborate with movements such as the DEAL.

Why use it?

Our newsletter is a mix of interviews, case studies, and commentary that offers insights into the real practices of the solidarity economy today, especially the cooperative community, social enterprises, and the non-profit community.

Who is it for?

Our readers include co-op leaders, entrepreneurs, services providers, funders, and social movement folks.

How long does it take?

Each issue takes approximately 10-15 minutes to read. 

How many people is it for?

Free to share!

What materials do you need?

Only an interest in this emerging movement!

What does the facilitator need to know or be able to do?

Some background in the solidarity economy.
