Just Economics
25 July 2024
What should the goal of the economy be? Why isn’t our current system enabling people to flourish, especially as the cost of living crisis bites? Could a change in approach help us solve the climate crisis? What does our Christian faith have to say about the economy?
If you want to explore the answers to these big questions, then the Just Economics resource might be for you.
Produced by JPIT, the short course opens up some of these questions and explores how the economy might be re-shaped to enable the wellbeing of all people and the planet.
Suitable for individual or group study, this six-session course is designed for people with no background in finance or economics. It is rooted in ideas found in the Bible and the teachings of Jesus, and compares this with other thinking around money, poverty and wealth, leading us to examine our own attitudes to systems of worth and how our society could be changed for the better.
