Who this work enables

Tools & support for charities: Training, peer coordination, movement resourcing and shared learning for organizations pursuing community-controlled economic models.

Humanity’s Checklist source match

Coordination · Vision — editorial, partial alignment.

Coalition infrastructure can help organizations combine efforts and make alternative economic arrangements more practical to imagine. Whether coordination changes ownership or welfare remains an empirical question.

Explicit checklist adoption: not verified. A mechanism match is not an affiliation, endorsement, evidence of effectiveness or a scoring bonus. Read the practice.

The proposed pathway

Shared organizing and resourcing infrastructure for regional solidarity economies

Six dimensions, with rationale

Structural depth

4 / 4

Its stated strategy seeks changes in ownership, control and regional economic institutions rather than only providing individual assistance.

Institutional reach

3 / 4

A cross-sector member network can connect organizations working on different needs, but actual influence and benefits are not established by network size.

Durability

2 / 4

Regional relationships and cooperative institutions may persist, while coalition support, resources and effective governance remain continuing needs.

Scalability

3 / 4

Shared training and peer infrastructure can travel between regions; implementation depends on local institutions, finance, skills and community legitimacy.

Funding additionality

Unreviewed

Unknown: unmet member needs, regrant restrictions, overlap with other networks and the counterfactual effect of additional coalition funding were not audited.

Community agency

Unreviewed

Unknown: published member-elected and worker-self-direction arrangements are relevant evidence, but affected-community representation, enforcement and actual decision rights across the network need a scoped audit.

Evidence and selection

Organization reported; current primary mechanism sources inspected

Illustrative inclusion to examine this mechanism. Inclusion is not an external recommendation or a verified comparative ranking.

A testable next question

Does additional coalition support cause durable, accountable community-owned institutions or better member delivery beyond what regional organizations would achieve without it?

Review confidence: Moderate for documented design; low for systemic attribution. The US 501(c)(3) membership coalition and its network-support model, not a score of every member enterprise; it is separate from the UK New Economics Foundation.

What remains uncertain

Member governance is not automatically governance by everyone affected by member organizations. A political-economic vision and a network are not proof of viable, equitable alternatives or net welfare gains. Do not attribute all members’ outcomes to the coalition or conflate it with NEF.
