"Contemporary society confronts us with serious and far-reaching challenges. The calls which have arisen for new social structures show us that solutions to these challenges must be sought in ways that have not yet been considered."
R.Steiner

The financial crisis, the speculative economic behaviour, the worldly economic system's fragility and its disastrous consequences on the real economy have created uncertainty regarding the future economic perspective and lead to look at the economist as the most mistrusting person and at money - the subject of all the economic activity - as the root of the individual detachment from his social life.

Indeed, the economic activity and money are considered the mirrors of the humans' materialistic aims. However, the current economic situation has attracted a number of economist and philosophers together to study the relationship between the economic life and money in order to understand what is ''money'' and why it is so important in our daily life and why it can constrain the real economic activity. The aim of these studies and researches is to link together creativity and money in order to let money serve the aims of the creative activity, instead of constrain it.

Between the 29th and the 30th of October the Balmain Town Hall will host a conference entitled: ''''. The conference's aim is to inform people and specialists about the possibility to revolutionize our economic system starting from the local activity and the personal creativity. During the conference a team of international and national speakers will take part, that are actively involved in analysing the possibility for a debt-free economy, complimentary currencies, ethical banking and more.
