An RBE-TA is sort of like a school with no tuition. Since this is the case the location can be any plot of land which students will live full-time. At an RBE-TA everyone is a student learning the best practices of a resource based economy. If you have ever seen a 'free school' or a 'makers space', these seem to be extremely valuable additions to any RBE-TA. Of course the management structure will be as horizontal as possible with deviations be as democratic as possible.

There is no consensus yet about how to implement the ideas of a Resource-Based Economic Model[neutrality is disputed].

Contents

[edit] Bottom-up and Top-down approaches

Advocates of bottom-up approaches argue for starting with RBEM implementation projects soon, for incrementally developing the implemented methods and for incrementally increasing the participation, either on a individual basis or by including more and more people[citation needed]. Advocates of top-down approaches rather think that people could be distracted from the general RBEM ideas because of problems that arise from specific RBEM implementation projects. They support educating as many people as possible and planning as many details as possible, before starting to implement a Resource-Based Economy[citation needed]. Of course also hybrid approaches are conceivable.

RBE Training Arenas (RBE-TAs) may be an option for enabling currently established communities to begin a gradual transformation into an RBE. With RBE-TAs developing all over a web of support for experimental settlements, settlements could be like graduate school.
