Think locally, act locally

The local is gaining in importance again.
New local initiatives are emerging.

Many local initiatives have emerged in recent weeks, offering supplies of food and consumer goods, as well as help in all forms.

For instance, there is now an “Online Shop in South Tyrol for the Promotion of Local Shopping” in which everyone can offer and ask for products and services. The facebook group was intended to “Help everyone to strengthen the trade in South Tyrol in the crisis!” https://www.facebook.com/groups/270258110629872/?fref=nf

THIS IS GREAT!

BUT WHY DID IT NOT EXIST BEFORE?

The central idea is on a common helping of each other. If my community is well, then I have the best chances to be well aswell.…?

In times of Covid19 people who live nearby will be close to us and we can form a stronger cohesion, so we can manage to provide save and best help to each other. Is local the future? Local, the old global will be awesome again.

But how does it exactly work? How did it work?

Let’s take it a step back.
Barter goods and services.
Money looses importance.
What do we actually need? Is it love and a good community or tropical fruits and coffee? Yes, coffee, please but also love!

With the possibilities of digital networking we have today, we could create a new local network. What are the positive sides of barter and the former local networking and trading and how can we pick out what is interesting for our time and generate a new local? What were the advantages and disadvantages?

Only now I realize that there are MANY local possibilities. Many small companies selling nearly everything. Many small existences that need to be supported. Now and also after the Covid19 crisis!

Let us build a network that will sustain! Local, regional and global!

We are happy about numerous links to local-social initiatives!

Help to strengthen the local trade in the crisis!
