WIN EQUITABLE ECONOMIES COOPERATIVE
An equitable well-being economy is a living system. It rests on the basic goal of all people and places thriving together–with no exceptions. It is an economy that is just, regenerative, multiracial. It values all stakeholder interests. An equitable economy rebalances power. It provides what everyone needs to participate, prosper, and reach their full potential.
A well-being economy provides opportunity for freedom, voice, power, ownership. It leads to a fulfilling life over generations for everyone. An economy that addresses inequities due to racism, colonialism and other discrimination creates the conditions for everyone to thrive together.
The WIN Equitable Economies cooperative brings together communities, businesses and national organizations to advance a restorative and just well-being economy together through organizational and public policy change. It includes two subteams that lead to different piece of this work:
