Description

Welcome to the Land Cafe's Idea Factory -- an Open Society forum created to serve people and groups around the world who are interested to find ways for our societies to come to grips with the troubling but important issues of value capture and land tax reform in an age in which important public services remain substantially under-funded. The Cafe offers a free, public, flexible repository for documents (see Files just to your left here) and key links to other programs and site (see Links), and creative discussion space for people and groups who feel that we need to do a lot better in these two important areas of society.

Best way to access this forum and its tools is through the Land Cafe home page at http://www.landcafe.org. Welcoming Note: First-time visitors are warmly invited to read the Welcoming Note. This forum is monitored to ensure that the exchanges stay on focus. It is also fully searchable -- see the guidelines here for hints on how to do this. Email overload? No problem. Go to Edit Membership just above here and put yourself down for the Daily Digest, preferably in their quite nice Fully Featured version.

The Cafe is a public service of The Commons. We welcome diversity of background, culture and views -- and stay open 24 hours a day for people who wish freely to exchange ideas and information about it in a plain-speaking but ever civil way. Like any good cafe, it is important that we be good listeners as well as interesting talkers. So drink up while it's hot.
