    Hola a tod@s,

    Os paso este mensaje de MONNETA (Alemania) en inglés, conmemorando el aniversario de Margrit Kennedy (1939 - 2013) quien impulsó muchísimo el movimiento de monedas sociales en los países de habla alemana.  Dos libros suyos están disponibles en castellano y os recomiendo leerlo si todavía no los habéis leído...

Trouble reading this email?

Dear Miguel Yasuyuki,

 
today Margrit would celebrate her birthday and because of that - and considering that she has already been dead for nearly 5 years - we wanted to give you a quick update about how we continued Margrit's work on complementary currency solutions. Because today as then, the kind of money we use is a central issue on the way to a more just and equitable economy. If we succeed in creating more awareness about and alternatives to our current financial system, a lot can be improved.
The charitable association MONNETA, which Margrit founded before her death together with Kathrin Latsch, has developed over the years. To reflect that also in its name, we added the line "Network for Monetary Diversity" to it in recent month.
In 2015, the MONNETA Website had been relaunched and now provides an excellent overview of all monetary reform proposals and explains particularly complementary currencies in an accessible way. MONNETA collaborates with other organisations like Finance Watch, or the citizens' movement Bürgerbewegung Finanzwende and the German network for Pluralistic Economics. We organise public lectures, panel discussions and workshops, regularly in cooperation with universities. MONNETA also produced several new films and video interviews, which can be found in our media library. The latest one, released this summer, provides a short and concise introduction to why we and our experts are so concerned about money - not the lack of it, but as a topic of education and innovation (German only, English translation coming soon).

The continuation of MONNETA is financially secured - but to do more towards Margrit's hopes and ambitions MONNETA would like to develop additional activities, like a major documentary on the subject of "alternatives to the perpetual financial crises and the money of the future". For those we rely on your support! Antja, Margrit's daughter, has followed her wish and joined the MONNETA board and provides an "out-side eye" on our topics and activities. Declan supports her and Kathrin with his experience and advise - as much in regards to the long history of Margrit's work as to the future.

You can also support our work through a donation or by pointing others to our work, our website or this newsletter. Every donation helps and delights us! And we provide tax receipts, also to companies, if applicable in your country.
If you would like to meet us at one of our events and meetings: the next will be on Friday the 22nd of February at the University of Siegen (more information on that will be published soon on our website).


We are always looking forward to hear from you and would be happy if you would forward this message to interested people around you!
Warm regards,
Antja & Declan Kennedy
