The Mutual Aid Podcast – Détails, épisodes et analyse

In this inaugural episode of the Mutual Aid Podcast, Zev Friedman (founder and host) and Debra Penberthy (producer) discuss the history of mutual aid societies, an ancient method whereby communities have organized to solve societal problems that are beyond the capabilities of the family or village.  We discuss current efforts to establish a new generation of Mutual Aid Networks (MANs) (www.mutualaidnetworks.org) that address our most pressing current needs, such as climate change and healthcare access.  We introduce Humans United in Mutual Aid Networks (HUMANS), a new organization designed to unite all of the local aid networks into an international sharing economy.  Tammy Lea Meyer, a community advocate based in Vancouver, BC is interviewed as a teaser for her in-depth interview in episode two.  Here are the links mentioned in this episode.
