Watch our new 42-minute documentary film featuring inspiring localization initiatives from across the world.

The global economy is putting all life on Earth at risk. However, there is a powerful counter-trend. Millions of people are working to bring about a system shift – supporting cultural and biological diversity, social justice, genuine democracy, and our health and happiness.

‘The Power of Local’ brings not only inspiration, but also solutions to counteract the growth of the global economy and carving out a different path going forward.

It’s evident that localization is possible and is already happening across the world!

Closer to Home – Voices of Hope in a Time of Crisis

This 35-minute film is a united call for a new economy, delivered by those who have committed their lives to working for systemic change.

A film by Local Futures and Cyrus Sutton. Produced and directed by Helena Norberg-Hodge and Anja Lyngbaek. Narrated by Nathalie Kelley. Featuring strong voices from the worldwide localization movement:
Rutendo Ngara · Vandana Shiva · Charles Eisenstein · Bayo Akomolafe · Iain McGilchrist · Manish Jain · Jeremy Lent · Juan Del Rio · Jyoti Fernandes · John Perkins · Camila Moreno · Satish Kumar · Darcia Narvaez · Helena Norberg-Hodge · Rupert Read · Andrew Simms · Nelson Mudzingwa · Michael Shuman · Morag Gamble · Alnoor Ladha · Poppy Okotcha · Keibo Oiwa · Patricia Moguel Viveros · Ruby van der Wekken · Jon Jandai · Eva Henje · Ben Rawlence · George Ferguson · Diego Isabel La Moneda · Peter MacFadyen · Daniel Christian Wahl · Rob Hopkins · Debra Efroymson · Thais Mantovani

We live in a time of multiple crises, from climate chaos, poverty, and war to skyrocketing costs of living. It can seem overwhelming – until we realise that we have the power to change things.

‘Closer to Home’ brings together an extraordinary array of thinkers, writers, and activists from every continent to make a simple but revolutionary argument: by reducing the scale of the economy, we can not only stop the rush towards social and ecological breakdown, but restore damaged ecosystems and increase our own personal well-being.

It’s a message of hope that the world cannot afford to ignore.

Local Futures is an international non-profit organization, dedicated to renewing ecological and social well-being by strengthening communities and local economies. To learn more about our work, visit: localfutures.org/
