Why is this important?
Business-as-usual in our economy isn’t working.
From the cost of living and doing business, to rampant inequality and low pay, while the rich get richer and the planet suffers - real solutions are urgently needed.
At the heart of this is a broken economic system.
With a Scottish general election on the horizon, we need the next Scottish Government and Parliament to prioritise the economic and wellbeing needs of ordinary people.
A big growth in social enterprises, cooperatives and community and employee owned businesses means putting people and planet first.
Supporting these inclusive, democratic businesses will help fix our economy and build a stronger, fairer, greener future for everyone in Scotland.
