An economic system can only become socially just and environmentally sustainable if it has built-in structures to prevent harm and to incentivize responsible behavior. To drive real system change, completely new sustainability tools and approaches are needed – not only in businesses but also banks, cities and regions, schools and other organizations.
The Economy for the Common Good (ECG) has been working on repurposing the economic system towards wellbeing for people and nature for over 10 years. It has been prototyping and piloting new economic approaches around the world, which make the Common Good the primary goal and purpose of our activities.
