The video : 9min21

While the power of money in the world has long been established, have you ever thought of money’s potential power to develop mutual trust within a community? Florence Siegenthaler proposes using a local currency to put the power back in the hands of our communities.

The intro animation was produced as a collaboration between TEDxBasel and the Hochschule Luzern. This animation was created by Loïc Kreyden and Valentine Moser.
