The New Economics Foundation (nef) is an independent think-and-do tank that promotes innovative solutions to economic, environmental and social issues. Nef has developed an exciting new approach to grass-roots democracy, called Democs (DEliberative Meeting Of Citizens). It is a card game and structured discussion to involve people in public policy issues. Democs can be used to help people take part in democracy and help them reach a better understanding of different opinions on contentious issues.LARC the movie, now with subtitles!

Nottingham University faces global boycott
06-08-2004 11:23
Nottingham University is facing a global academic boycott unless serious negotiations over a new pay and grading settlement begin before 20 September. The move follows Nottingham’s refusal to honour a previous commitment to negotiate a pay and grading settlement in line with that agreed between national university employers and AUT (Association of University Teachers) in March 2004.Their latest offer introduces performance related pay for staff, would lead to reductions in career earnings of nearly £9,000 over six years for some and would remove the entitlement to belong to the national university pension scheme for others.
There are a number of things you can do to support AUT’s campaign – write to the Tines Higher stating your support, e-mail Nottingham’s Vice Chancellor Colin Campbell, telling him what you think about the pay deal. Get involved - visit the AUT website for more information www.aut.org.uk, e-mail
justine.stephens@aut.org.uk to pledge your support. Explorations Beyond Sustainability - Permaculture NetTogether
