The Worldwide Database of Complementary Currency Systems
By Stephen DeMeulenaere

This database collects statistical information on complementary currency systems and generates detailed reports on the state of these systems. We encourage all complementary currency systems, of all types, anywhere in the world, to record their information in this database, and we welcome your comments to improve the database.

SANE stands for the South African New Economics Network, an organisation modelled on the New Economics Foundation in the UK. We also hope it stands for the creation of a sane economic system based on a new type of money.
