The Sharing Cities Network connects local
sharing activists in cities around the world for fun, mutual support, and
movement building. Fifty cities around
the world began mapping their shared resources in October and
November 2013 during Shareable's first annual #MapJam. This was just the
beginning of the Sharing Cities Network - an ambitious project to create one
hundred sharing cities groups by 2015.
What’s the sharing transformation? It’s a
movement of movements emerging from the grassroots up to solve today’s
biggest challenges, which old, top-down institutions are failing to address.
Behind these failing
industrial-age institutions are outmoded beliefs about how the world works
– that ordinary people can’t govern themselves directly; that nonstop economic
growth leads to widespread prosperity; and that more stuff leads to
more happiness.
Amid crisis, a new way
forward is emerging – the sharing transformation. The sharing transformation is
big, global, and impacts every part of society.
