The Woodstock Institute for Future Investment advocates a life-enhancing economy & awareness of interconnectedness of all sentient beings with the Earth.
The Woodstock Institute for the Future (WIFI) witnesses to and facilitates the emergence of a new, regenerative economy. The hospicing of a tattered economic system that doesn't nourish our spirits is well underway. The "New Economy" is a system of economic values, practices, and frameworks for economic exchange that enhance wellbeing and social justice without sacrificing the natural world or resources available for future generations.
New Economy Worldview:
...Assets – The wealth of a society is its people. Every human being can be a builder and contributor.
.... Work redefined - includes whatever it takes to rear healthy children, preserve families, make neighborhoods safe and vibrant, care for the frail and vulnerable, attack injustice, and make democracy work.
....... Reciprocity – We all want to give back. Replace all forms of one-way acts of helping with two-way transactions, so that “You need me” becomes “We need each other”
..............Social Capital – Humans require a social infrastructure, which require ongoing investments of social capital generated by trust, reciprocity, and civic engagement.
