Maps of alternatives

Below you will find many inspiring maps from different organizations across the world. While only a snapshot, together they provide a visual of the amazing breadth and scope of initiatives seeking both to halt the destructive economy, and to build new, regenerative, localized alternatives.

Included are Local Futures’ own maps from our vast library of Planet Local grassroots initiatives and from the International Alliance for Localization.

If you know of a map that should be added to this list, please contact us.
