Local Economic Development
Working with internationally known specialists, we have developed a new approach to local economic development that engages people in a planning and implementation process to create wealth in communities while enhancing natural and social systems. Local Action for Sustainable Economic Renewal (LASER) consists of a workbook and supporting materials for community leaders. The tools identify the different sources of wealth in a community, and enable people to design strategies that address critical areas for sustainable prosperity.

Community Currency Guide
GCI has worked with a leading expert in the
field, Bernard Lietaer, to develop a local
guide to community currency. This workbook
helps community leaders identify the kinds
of complementary currencies that might be
appropriate for their cities and towns, and
gives them step-by-step advice on how to
introduce them locally.
