Just Money: Banking as if Society Mattered

May 20, 2019

The Just Money team is excited to announce that our self paced 2019 course, Just Money: Banking as if Society Mattered, is now open for enrollment!

Do you know what your bank does with your money? What is the role of a bank in producing societal well-being?

In May we launch a self-paced free online program that explores new ways of banking and new ways of using finance as a tool to address social and ecological challenges.

This course is for anyone who wants to understand the unique role banks play as intermediaries in our economy and how they can leverage that position to produce positive social, environmental, and economic change.

No previous knowledge of finance or banking is needed to take this course.

  • The core principles of just banking
  • How finance can be used as a tool for social and environmental change

This course is a collaboration between MIT CoLab and the Presencing Institute.
