Pub & Film night: Finding The Money to create prosperous sustainable societies

🔥 The missing link to a liveable future

💡 Climate. Housing. Inequality. Democracy. The crises of our time have a common barrier: outdated thinking about money.

Join us for a powerful film + expert panel that will change how you see funding climate action and social progress.

Finding the Money follows NYT best-selling author Stephanie Kelton as she debunks myths about government debt and reveals how we can fund bold solutions - without higher taxes or endless borrowing.

🌍 “This money piece is the missing piece in the entire environmental movement.” – Maren Poitras, Director

Why this event matters

We have the technology. We have the solutions. So why aren’t we acting?

Because we’re told there’s not enough money. That solving these crises would require higher taxes, more debt, or impossible costs.

The same myths that block climate action also drive housing unaffordability, unemployment, cost-of-living pressures, and democratic decline.

But what if money isn’t the real barrier?

This event will show how rethinking money can unlock real solutions - empowering communities, governments, and movements to build a just and sustainable future.

What you’ll get

✅ A mind-expanding film that changes how you see climate action
✅ Expert panel discussion on how these ideas drive real change
✅ Networking with fellow changemakers over pre-event drinks
