About the event

Local Prosperity Lab - World Localisation Day
Northern Rivers region! We kept fracking out of the region because good people came together for what they wanted, and refused to give it the social, cultural, and community and cultural licence big development needs.

We hold that reputation in Byron as a community passionately implementing solutions on everything from farming to homeschooling.

Are you someone who passionately contributes to that reputation, putting time in co-creating and maintaining the region of our dreams?

But if we’re not rallying together in a crisis, do you find people are timepoor, it can be hard to get volunteers for your great idea or cause, and that we’re all spread so thin.

Join us for a joyful global day for the movement spotlighting a cross-pollination of inspirational solutions, ground-breaking examples from across the world, and mingle with like-minded people keen to share their opinions and knowledge.

Join in for Byron’s World Localisation Day event. Local voices, local relevance.
> Watch the "Closer to Home" documentary by Local Futures
> Hear from Local Futures' Founder and Director, Helena Norberg-Hodge
> Nominate for the participatory group on your topic of interest
> Enjoy a scrummy, locally-sourced burger
> Put your ideas on the World Localisation Day parchment so we can contribute to other projects around us.

Building on Relocalise Northern Rivers’ successful events, now we’re collaborating with the Imagine Northern Rivers project, supporting SeedNR, and others, giving Byron a voice. Creating the region of our dreams - proactively.

What is localisation?

Localisation is the process of building economic structures that allow communities to produce goods and services locally and regionally, whenever possible. It's about bringing the economy back to a human scale, creating thriving communities and healthy local food systems.*

What localisation is not.

Localisation isn’t about ending all trade. Communities can still export surpluses once local needs are met, and they can still import goods that can’t be produced locally. But localisation allows local, regional, and even national self-reliance to replace dependence on distant, unaccountable corporations.

Localisation does not mean total isolation. Localised economies are a reflection of particular cultures, resources and needs, but they still encourage the free exchange of knowledge and ideas across borders. In fact, localisation requires international cooperation and collaboration to address global problems like climate change, and to forge agreements to scale back the rapacious power of global corporations and banks.*
