Hosted by the Sustainable Economies Law Center

The Sustainable Economies Law Center (SELC) cultivates a new legal landscape that supports community resilience and grassroots economic empowerment. SELC provides essential legal tools — education, research, advice, and advocacy — to support this transition to localized, resilient economies. Our work focuses on practices that promote justice and sharing, including Cooperatives, Community Currencies, Community Enterprises, Local Investing, Cohousing, Urban Agriculture, Community Renewable Energy, and other innovative economic strategies.
