Mission

The democracy collaborative was established in 2000 to advance understanding of democracy for the 21st century and to promote emerging strategies and innovations in community development that enhance democratic life. In particular, our work focuses on the critical role local economic stability plays in strengthening civic life, providing meaningful employment, enhancing family security, and promoting environmental sustainability. The democracy collaborative sponsors a range of education projects involving research, training, and community-focused work designed to increase support for wealth building innovations at the local level.

Programs

1 program

Theory, research and policy programs: in 2024, we produced the 2024 second edition of the u.s. Index of systemic trends, written up in the guardian. We partnered with ussen and pnll on "resist & build" to grow the solidarity economy movement. We convened the next system movement lab, a re-founding five-day meeting at pocantico on the strategy and movement for system change with thirty key partners from across north america. We launched marjorie kelly's wealth supremacy, using the book to reach hundreds of thousands, perhaps even millions, of people through media channels with its critique of financialized capitalism.
