Kiwah.org is online!
The first launched community is the one in Amsterdam. Check out the website and become a member. Make visible where we should shop and exchange ideas, knowledge and experience with other Kiwah members. (The website is only available in Dutch at the moment, the English version will be available in the beginning of 2011).
We offer you Kiwah: a monetary system that helps us to reach ambitious climate goals.
Our times have many challenges that need urgent solutions. We have the challenge to reduce our CO2 emissions with 80% in a short period of time. We have to develop a slim economy that is able to overcome poverty and feed a growing population. To accomplish this immense task, we need to go through an intensive transformation. Our gift will be part of the solution.
Kiwah is a new currency that is specially designed to stimulate our communities to lower our CO2-emissions. Kiwah can be used by a wide variety of communities working on transition, climate and poverty projects. The Kiwah is a concrete instrument that helps us to build our communities to achieve different societal goals, and bring project income.
Kiwah is designed by Qoin and is launched on December 15th in a TV show at the Klimaforum during the COP 15 in Copenhagen. It will be further developed in close collaboration with the Climate Solutions Meshworks, YourClimate.tv, and many others. All communities over the world that focus on sustainable development are invited to use the Kiwah.
