Grassroots Economist

Grassroots Economist is a living journal and field guide for those reclaiming community-rooted economics. Rooted in over a decade of practice with marginalized communities in Kenya and beyond, this publication explores the ancient and emerging protocols of care, coordination, and shared abundance. Here, we reflect on commitment pooling, ancestral wisdom, digital cooperation, and ecological stewardship—not as theory, but as living tools. Each post invites readers into a global remembrance: that we already hold what we need, and that a regenerative, just economy begins with trust. Join a growing network of dreamers, doers, and stewards reviving the original purpose of economy—to care for each other and the Earth.
