reMAKING Economics: A Course in the Possible
What could the economy of our dreams look like -- one that didn’t exploit and extract, hurdle us towards a climate cliff or concentrate wealth and power in the hands of a smaller few… but actually promoted a fair and flourishing world? How did we even get this economy? What are our alternatives, as well as key ‘upstream’ interventions in the system we have gaining traction right now?
It’s time to get far more confident in naming and claiming the possibilities for the economy we want.
This year, Australia reMADE is proud to offer “reMAKING Economics: A course in the possible” for professional campaigners, leaders, journalists and anyone who’s tired of just playing whack-a-mole with neoliberalism and its crises, and is ready to think upstream. This course will help advocates, allies and influencers to increase their economic literacy, savvy and confidence to barrack for bold new ideas and solutions, educate others and rebut the usual ‘econobabble’ that keeps us stuck.
We’re also interviewing leading ‘rebel economic’ thinkers and leaders on our podcast, the reMAKERS, so that everyone everywhere can get access to these ideas.
Expressions of interest are warmly invited, with a pilot course expected to launch in mid-October 2023 and run for 6-8 weeks online. Spaces are limited and formal applications for potential participants open in July 2023.
