  • Solidarity Economies: sharing experiences, exchanging perspectives
    Activity Date: Monday, May 2, 2022 - 16:00 UTC
    Duration: 120 min
    Brief Description:

    Exchanging ideas and experiences is crucial to building new ecosystems of liberation. We invite solidarity economy organizers, artists, activists, policymakers, and indigenous groups to share the history and meaning behind their work. Facilitators will have prompts for participants to respond to and share the work they are doing, the challenges they have faced, and their hopes for the future. They will then be invited to a follow-up event to map the ecosystems that make their work possible and to explore where they need support.

    This is a part of a broader effort to research the vital stories about the challenges and successes of solidarity economies. For more information please contact:
