Salt Lake Chamber’s Post

We need to have conversations about what it takes to create a thriving #MultiracialDemocracy that would allow us to achieve a good life. The people who are going to be the future, are going to be prepared for the future.

The Wellbeing Economy Alliance Aotearoa is a proud partner of Te Tiriti-based Futures + Anti-racism online conference 2024 which kicks off tomorrow! There is still time to register for ten days of presentations and workshops from incredible speakers and leaders who will discuss institutional racism and anti-racism, decolonisation, building Te Tiriti-based futures and transforming our constitution online. This kōrero is so important at this time. WEAll’s vision is an Aotearoa New Zealand with a reshaped economy designed around the wellbeing of its people and nature. We see this transformation built upon Te Tiriti o Waitangi. Rather than treating economic growth as an end in and of itself and pursuing it at all costs, a Wellbeing Economy puts our human and planetary needs at the centre of its activities, ensuring that these needs are all equally met, by design. We are inspired by the leadership of Māori organisations and enterprises already putting koiora, whenua and wai at the heart of their economies. WEAll Aotearoa believes a Te Tiriti-led, broad-based, people-powered movement can transform the economic system to a Wellbeing Economy and we hope you can make these online sessions.

Reflection of Arizmendiarrieta for today: Using the rational mind is the powerful resource that human beings have to satisfy their needs and to pursue their goals. Through prevision and the consequent planning, people join the past and the present, establish priority of needs and employ resources adequately. #reflectionsofarizmendiarrieta #InclusiveParticipativeCompanyModel #CooperationEconomy #Arizmendiarrieta

Reflection of Arizmendiarrieta for today: If we were able to accept more austerity in our individual life and if we knew how to transplant that same virtue to our social life, we would be able to break or at least not have the necessity to engage in so many social commitments. #reflectionsofarizmendiarrieta #InclusiveParticipativeCompanyModel #CooperationEconomy #Arizmendiarrieta

Is migration the solution to labour scarcity? With baby boomers about to retire and an uncertain generational change, Germany’s shrinking working population is dampening its growth potential. In the latest #ESMLunchTalk, German Council of Economic Experts (SVR) member Veronika Grimm spoke with ESM Chief Economist Rolf Strauch and argued that labour-oriented migration policies are insufficient to counter labour scarcity, and that additional factors should be considered to increase productivity. Among which, she mentioned: ✔️ Waves of refugee arrivals should be considered when developing migration polices ✔️ The differences in female participation across EU countries and how to increase participation ✔️ Investments to enhance productivity to substitute labour where needed #ESMeuro

Doing our part goes long way

Reflection of Arizmendiarrieta for today: It is absurd to observe how active people enjoying perfect health lose overnight their authority, autonomy, and the illusion to live, becoming beings that stand on the way, are sub-estimated and are only subjected to systematic flattery and pampering. #reflectionsofarizmendiarrieta #InclusiveParticipativeCompanyModel #CooperationEconomy #Arizmendiarrieta

Global Goal 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth Together, we need to work to promote sustained, inclusive, and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment, and decent work for all. #SDGs #ShadesofUs #GlobalGoals

Those we entrust with power, our own power; have long since stopped seeing the populations for what they really are, or could be. Which is filled with potential, the potential of unique individuals, with parts to play in society; and service to offer their communities. More, and more we are told that there are too many of us, alive in the world at the same time; using up the resources faster than they can be replaced, and making a mess of everything we touch. The totalitarians, and technocrats of the World Economic Forum, like to dismiss the billions as useless eater's, and surplus to requirement. Tha same WEF, and it's worshippers; are infuriated by individuals who value national borders, and sovereign nation states with unique heritage and ways of life. Not to mention the constitutional in-liable rights, of all those pesky upity individuals; with all their own ideas, of how to live a life. Instead those self worshipping would be autocrats, indulge fantasies of another utopia; in which everything works exactly as THEY... want it to, without the place being cluttered with billions of people inclined to follow their own hearts desires. That everyone of those human beings might be entitled to a decent life independent of the state, as much as possible .... is for the one world government devotees; only an obstacle to be overcome, a true to be deleted. So useless are so many of us, in their eyes; or very soon to be made useless by technology, we are to be made powerless, to resist. We should apparently be great full to occupy unheated homes and eat plants and insects, while we each individually live out the entire span of our lives; in it's entirely, within walking distance of our homes in localised 15 minute cities across the world. https://lnkd.in/gTwaspN6

While the global economy is growing, basic human rights are being taken away. How did humans evolve when we were deprived of food, water, and even shelter? This polarization asks us fundamental questions. What is our progress really for? We must not forget that true development occurs only when all human beings enjoy basic dignity and rights, not just material abundance. If we are to truly evolve, we need to reflect more deeply on our nature as human beings. #human #gaza #world #development
