Sustainable Economies Law Center cultivates a new legal landscape that supports community resilience and grassroots economic empowerment. SELC provides essential legal tools – education, research, advice, and advocacy – so communities everywhere can develop their own sustainable sources of food, housing, energy, jobs, and other vital aspects of a thriving community. In partnership with Kalliopeia, SELC is holding Sacred Legal Circles, a special offering to land and housing projects that center spirituality, the sacred, and/or non-dominant/non-Western worldviews.
“The Sustainable Economies Law Center is a rich ecosystem where dozens of diverse projects grow and flourish. Each project can stand alone and make an impact, but it is infinitely more powerful as part of an interconnected web of work, both within the Law Center and embedded in broader collaborations, coalitions, and movements.”
Can movement nonprofits create and sustain liberatory and resilient structures, cultures, and practices—and still be effective and efficient in their operations?
