drop-in between 10.45 am – 3.30 pm
Presentations from 12.00 noon

The Crescent Arts Centre
2-4 University Road, Belfast, BT7 1NH
(See www.crescentarts.org for details of location)

All Welcome
Urgent action is required globally and locally - to finance the
transition towards a lower carbon economy, based on
renewable principles, to alleviate poverty and to enable
socially useful work. Our savings and the financial reserves
of our churches and civil society organisations can make a contribution to these needs.

But there must also be well-regulated financial institutions,
run with integrity and a concern to ensure that finance is
directed to where it can make a real difference.
This event provides an opportunity to learn about the
general issues and to meet with some of the financial
services providers who meet these needs.

There will be scheduled presentations as well as the opportunities simply to ‘drop in’, browse and chat with contributors, which include the Ecology Building Society, Oikocredit, the Charity Bank and the GAEIA Partnership.

There will also be information about the work of the
Ecumenical Council for Corporate Responsibility and the
Better Banking Campaign.

It will be of interest to all engaged in the environmental,
justice and peace movements

Entrance free. Wheelchair access.

Light refreshments provided & café on site
