  • Seminar

Alternative Economic and Monetary Systems is an interdisciplinary summer university focusing on alternatives to the economic status quo: International participants deal with limits of growth, as well as the instabilities of our financial system. They learn why a drastic system change is necessary to reach the target of stabilizing the world climate at 1.5°C - and most importantly: they are presented with an array of innovative approaches!

The aim of the summer program is to raise awareness for the urgently necessary shift in our economic system and for the many alternatives available. Participants learn about the interconnections between economy, finance, society and the environment and gain knowledge of an array of reform proposals that consider natural boundaries and the human factor to be equal parts of the equation.

After successful participation, students receive a certificate of BOKU University for 5 ECTS. Continuous attendance during the full-time program is mandatory!
