A Schumacher College Online Course with Christian Felber
Money will shape our future. The question is: who decides – and for what purpose?
Money shapes almost every aspect of our lives, yet the systems that govern it remain among the least democratic, least transparent, and most resistant to change. From deepening inequality and ecological breakdown to recurring financial crises, today’s monetary and financial system is not neutral infrastructure: it actively determines what—and who—thrives.
This bold and timely short course at Schumacher College invites you to rethink money itself.
Guided by internationally renowned economist and founder of the Economy for the Common Good movement, Christian Felber, the course offers a radical yet practical reorientation of finance: from a self-serving system driven by speculative markets to a public infrastructure designed to serve people, planet, and future generations.
At its heart lies a powerful paradigm shift: money as a public good. When money is understood not as a commodity but as shared infrastructure, new democratic possibilities open up, allowing finance to become a tool for social justice, ecological regeneration, and genuine prosperity.
