The entire event focuses on how additional local currencies work and how complementary currencies circulate. The guest speaker will be Max Hibbert, Coordinator of Beki.
Beki is an alternative form of currency that was created in an attempt to reinvigorate the rather run-down villages in the muniicpality of Beckerich by joining together local people and businesses and by creating their own local currency, the "Beki", for exchange of local services in preference to consuming foreign produce. They even have their own printed notes and which are accepted locally by some 75 or more companies, associations, etc., and are even exchangeable at the BCEE.
