Local Futures (formerly the International Society for Ecology and Culture) is a non-profit organization with offices in the US, the UK, and Australia. Our mission is to renew ecological, social and spiritual well-being by promoting a systemic shift towards economic localization.

A pioneer of the new economy movement, we have been raising awareness for four decades about the need to shift direction – away from dependence on global monopolies, and towards decentralized, regional economies.

We produce books, films, and other ‘education for action’ tools, as well as organizing activist-oriented conferences and workshops worldwide. These programs are helping to catalyze a global movement for change.

Visit www.localfutures.org to learn more about our events and projects, sign-up for our email updates, watch our award-winning film 'The Economics of Happiness', and more.
