#EconJusticeBrum

Our final Huddle presentation- A Life Well Lived - exploring care, connection and community in capitalist times.

An illustration of how hard we find it to explore without conclusion, to consider problems without solving, to allow ourselves to simply experience, connect & listen.

Child Poverty Changemakers
46.4% of #Brum children live in poverty. That’s over twice the national average.

How do we fix something so fundamentally broken?

7 asks of #Brum City Council including a play strategy, family centred housing and good youth work

#EconJusticeBrum

Transformative Economics - designing infrastructures for alternative economic systems in #Brum neighbourhoods.

Our huddlers adopted the symbol of a dandelion to represent breaking free of existing economic thinking & systems, distributing new ideas and transforming old ground

#econjusticeBrum

SEND Seen - our huddle exploring how to harness power to change the SEND system in #Brum from adversarial, demeaning, failing to holistic, creative, person centred, effective, dignified.

#EconJusticeBrum

Mindset Matters - this huddle was “impactful, empowering, cathartic” “economic justice served family style” - amazing black women leaders going inside themselves to question, challenge, explore and grow.

“Mindset is a collective practice’

“We are going to take over the world!” #econjusticebrum

Emergency vs Emergence - this huddle explored the book Emergent Strategy by Adrienne Maree Brown - concluding a move away from the individual to the collective is needed, and exploring the skills and actions needed to do that. adriennemareebrown.net/book/emergen... #econjusticebrum

“How do you define your personal economy?” One of our huddles has explored economic liberation through the lens of creativity and culture and their definitions involved blogs, poetry and illustration #EconJusticeBrum

The #econjusticebrum celebration event is live! Our thanks to Huddlecraft, People’s Economy and all our huddlers for their hard work to get us to this point.
