Time banking is a pattern of reciprocal service exchange that uses units of time as currency.

• How does it works?Essentially, the “time” one spends providing these types of community services earns “time” that one can spend to receive services.

• Where does it take place?At first it was opened in United Kingdom in 1988, now is avaible all over the world, thanks to TIMEREPUBLIK that launched global time banking in 2013.

• Why should you join it?As well as gaining credits, participating individuals, particularly those more used to being recipiens in other parts of their lives, can potentially gain confidence, social contact and skills through giving to others.
