What is the sharing economy, and what is a sharing city? How can the
principles of the grassroots sharing economy be applied to towns and cities
in ways that strengthen local economies, empower the underserved, and
increase community resilience?

Join us for a Transition US TeleSeminar where we explore these questions and
provide you with a packet of viable policy solutions that can remove barriers
to the grassroots sharing economy in your region.

Join the discussion to learn, share, and leave with an action plan for local
policy change in the areas of food, transportation, housing, and jobs.
