Our Work
Educate
Politicians, economists and think tanks often like to point out that there is no “magic money tree” or no funds for enhance the well-being of people and environment. However, that raises the question, where does the money actually come from? The answer is more complicated than many people realise. We aspire therefore to ask questions around:
- How the economy works
- Progressive economic policies
Research
To deal with the big social, economic and environmental challenges we’re facing today, we need to transform our money and banking system, and navigate in an unjust global economic order. IPE’s vision is for a money and banking system that serves a fair, democratic, equitable and sustainable economy. We propose querying around:
- Central bank and sustainable finance
- Government revenue and expenditure
- Making the economy work for people and environment
Advocate
Our politicians have the power to reform our money and banking system so that it supports a fair and more sustainable economy that. Yet, we need to first, convince them that thing need to change, and that we have the right proposals to make things better.
