Community Wealth Building Summit 2019

This June, join CLES for the second annual Community Wealth Building Summit! This Summit is the UK’s only Community Wealth Building event dedicated to celebrating successes, sharing ideas, exploring challenges and building the Community Wealth Building movement.

Across the UK – and beyond – people are recognising the limits of the economic development model that prizes economic growth over social and environmental need. They want to build a different kind of economy, one that is fairer, greener and works for communities, people and places. Community Wealth Building offers just that, and the movement behind it is growing.

Last year’s inaugural Summit was a sell-out event, demonstrating the appetite and energy that now exists to see Community Wealth Building move into the mainstream of economic development.

This year’s event will build on that momentum and see the launch of CLES’ new Community Wealth Building Centre of Excellence.
