An Incubator for the Community Economy in the Netherlands
Amsterdam’s Incubator for the Community Economy seeks to support grassroots initiatives and foster a democratic, localised economy. A coalition of civil society organisations, with municipal support, launched the incubator to promote socio-economic change, in line with the vision of the Donut Economy.
The incubator supports initiatives that democratise ownership and governance, emphasise social value and ecological regeneration, and create tangible benefits for local communities. Inspired by the principles of commons, the incubator supports diverse models such as cooperatives. Such initiatives often face obstacles like rigid institutional frameworks and funding challenges. The incubator bridges these gaps through funding support, knowledge-sharing, and network-building.
