<div style="color:#442f2a;font-family:Lucida Sans,Lucida;font-size:13px;line-height:150%;text-align:left">Dear all,<br>
<br>
We have the great pleasure to announce<strong> the publication of the synthesis of the international meeting "Building the movement </strong>/ Practionners of community and complementary currencies (CCC)" held in Lyon (France) in February 2011 and attended by over 250 researchers and practionners/project leaders around CCC initiatives.<br>
<a href="http://banquepalmas.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=8e657cfc193f8fdc34f4c6caa&id=5d847aa8dd&e=428da91d40" style="color:#336699;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">Download it here</a>.<br>
<br>
The document (unfortunately only available <u>in french</u> for the moment), comprehensive, contains the 12 "inaugural" presentations of the international experiences that opened the proceedings, but also contributions from initiatives missing during the meeting (mainly Latin American and French experiences, briefs on some ranges of local currencies operating in the territories).<br>
<br>
You will also find <strong>a synthesis of the academic conference "30 years of complementary currencies, and after ?"</strong> that preceded the meeting and written by Jerome Blanc, Laboratory Triangle University Lyon-2 and the list of participants.<br>
<br>
This publication is intended to leave a lasting impression of this first International Week of social and complementary currencies, coupled with the launch of a website "Currencies In Debate" : <a href="http://banquepalmas.us4.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=8e657cfc193f8fdc34f4c6caa&id=f056e27fb6&e=428da91d40" style="color:#336699;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank"><strong>http://www.monnaiesendebat.org</strong></a>.<br>
<br>
<strong>The site is an evolutionary space devoted to news, promotion and support of CCC actors and their initiatives</strong>, in line with what has facilitated the organization of the meeting in Lyon.<br>
Its content will be extended in the coming weeks (and an english version of some pages and documents will be soon available).<br>
<br>
There you can already get (in french) :<br>
<br>
- <strong>an illustrated typology </strong>of community currencies,<br>
- <strong>various informative documents</strong> (briefs on experiences mostly),<br>
- <strong>a topic "In debate"</strong> with some of the necessary interrogations and discussions in the field,<br>
- and <strong>awareness tools </strong>(special folders magazines, videos made by SCOP La Peniche and photographic panorama of practitionners by the association Fokus21) created under creative commons license which can be used in your networks to inform and communicate about the theme.<br>
<br>
<strong>A YouTube channel also includes all of these videos</strong> : <a href="http://banquepalmas.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=8e657cfc193f8fdc34f4c6caa&id=f094324348&e=428da91d40" style="color:#336699;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/user/Monnaiesendebat?feature=watch</a><br>
You will find there mainly interviews in english, french and spanish (but not subtitled yet) from experiences like the CES (South Africa), Brixton Pound (UK), Nu-Spaarpas (Netherlands), Regiogeld (Germany), Talent (Austria), Barter Clubs (Venezuela), C3 (Brasil/Uruguay), Accorderie (Quebec/Canada), LETS (France), local complementary currencies (France).<br>
Also some interviews with economists/activists and researchers like Jérome Blanc (CC panorama), Jean-Michel Servet (microcredit and CCs), Hugo Godschalk (demurrage), Matthew Slater and Tim Anderson (Community Forge - CCMag).<br>
<br>
We wish you a great moment with this "synthesis" and a rewarding consultation of the "Currencies In Debate" website.<br>
<br>
Please do not hesitate to <strong>send us some updates on your initiatives and all the documents you think interesting to promote your complementary currency scheme/experience/project.</strong><br>
<br>
We are trying to organize a new event for 2013 and possibly a "lighter preparatory meeting" before, in october 2012 in Brasil.<br>
<br>
Stay tuned !<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
