The Vegetarian Supper Club is now on Facebook. Join up and invite your friends.

The Club still remains a group of theTalent Exchange, so if 'outsiders' join it is our task to get them tojoin the Talent Exchange too.

Comment by Liezl Coetzee on August 27, 2009 at 12:32pm: Talent Exchange at Earthdance

The Talent Exchange will be hosting a stall/ stand/ communal area for people to trade at the Peace Camp at Earthdance festival this year.

This could be an ideal opportunity to come exchange your Talents, particularly in the form of massage and healing activities, which will be a key feature of the Peace Camp's activities.

We will also be signing up new members at the festival, so come along, spread the word and share your Talents.

Dates: 25 - 27 September 2009

Place: Nekkies resort, Rawsonville/ Worcester

More information about Earthdance Cape Town can be found on:

Hope to see you there.

Comment by Liezl Coetzee on June 3, 2009 at 5:07pm: Julian - to join the talent exchange (if you haven't managed to do so already) you need to create a CES account, which you can do on http://www.community-exchange.org. You will be asked to complete some background information, including a list of offerings you intend to exchange in this manner. Your application is then reviewed and you will receive an email with further instructions of how to proceed once it is approved.

Comment by Liezl Coetzee on June 3, 2009 at 5:05pm: Nathan - I would say the purpose of the communityexchange.ning website is or people interested in alternative approaches to economics to network and exchange ideas, with the aim of building a community of people around such concepts as alternative currencies. It also provides guidelines as to how one can set up your own exchange. Les Squires (one of the founding members of this site) is probably the best person to give you more insights into this. He has also created a 'curriculum' providing specific instructures as to how to set up such community exchanges. The purpose of the CES website on the other hand is more precise, to serve as a place for exchanges to take place, where members can list offers and wants, and with specialized software through which trades can take place. I hope this answers your question?

Introducing COGS

The Point of COGS

COGS stands for Circle of Gifts, and is a complementary currency specifically designed to help local communities re-localise activities. The aim of re-localisation is to provide inhabitants with the possibility of an acceptable quality of life when traditional economic development fails, or their circumstances are against them.

We believe complementary currencies will become more important as energy supplies dwindle and impact the economic growth so essential for inter… Continue

Credit and Debit Limits

Credit and Debit Limits

What are credit and debit limits and why do we need them in a community of givers and receivers promoting the notion of abundance? Surely limits create a shortage of the currency, taking us back to debt-based conventional money where those of us who are short of the stuff have to borrow it from those who have a surplus?

Credit and debit limits are absolutely essential for the health of an exchange. In the CES we do not impose 'hard' limits where the system stops… Continue
