Working with community groups to build a just economy, rooted in cooperation, neighborhood and racial equity, and ecological sustainability. Working with NYC grassroots groups to build a new economy that works for all. New Economy Project’s mission is to build an economy that works for all, rooted in racial and social justice, cooperation, neighborhood equity, and ecological sustainability. We believe another world is possible and that fundamental change is needed to achieve that world. We pursue lasting, transformational change by fighting systemic discrimination, and by supporting cooperative and community-led development in Black and brown NYC neighborhoods. This dual strategy is part of our theory of change. Our work is focused on New York City, and also has statewide and national impact. New Economy was established in 1995, and was formerly known as the Neighborhood Economic Development Advocacy Project.
