What is Caring Economics?
Caring economics is based on values of a more equal society where human dependence on the earth and caregiving activities are acknowledged and counted. The health of the earth, families and households, children and communities become the correct indicators for viable human systems.
The Real Wealth of Portland Project is about developing ways for us to recognize the economic value of the invisible economy that operates out of sight and out of mind of the dominant market economy.
