The taster session and workshop will focus on:

why we do it,
how we can change what we do.


We will be exploring questions including:

Including the positive such as funding climate change solutions, as well as the negative such as wars and inequality.

·        What could we do about it?
From switching banks to income pooling, there are many possibilities to explore.

·        How do our backgrounds and histories affect our relationship to money?
Through sharing stories about what our lives have taught us about money we can become more aware of its impacts on us and the world.

·        What does money represent to us?
From love to power, how does this change what we do with it?
