Economic Imaginations
Shaping how people think about value, economy, and systems
This stream focuses on shifting mindsets and opening up space for alternative thinking — through editorial work, critical perspectives, and ideas that challenge dominant economic and funding models.
What We Do
Ideas, narratives, and critical perspectives
We work with thinkers, practitioners, and communities who are ready to question dominant assumptions about value, ownership, and economic organization — and to imagine what else is possible. We translate complex ideas into accessible formats that can reach and move people.
This Includes
- Editorial and conceptual writing on value, economy, and systems
- Thought pieces on value creation and economic assumptions
- Critical perspectives on dominant economic and funding models
- Global South perspectives on alternative economies
- Translating complex ideas into accessible formats
We Also Explore
- How value, ownership, and resources can be organized differently
- Surfacing existing alternative models from around the world
- Questioning the assumptions we rarely think to question
