A complementary currency is a 'widely accepted medium of exchange or payment issued by a non-governmental body in the absence of any legal privileges'. A local currency is money used in a particular region, locality, or town. Community currencies are designed to be used by a specific group and their aim is to build more sustainable societies and retain wealth in a specific area. It permits strengthening social cohesion and economic resiliency of a community.
