The Solidarity Economy (SE) is an alternative framework for economic development that is based on the principles of solidarity, equity in all dimensions, participatory democracy, sustainability, and pluralism.
The solidarity economy framework seeks transformation rather than band-aid solutions, yet rejects an one-size-fits-all blueprint.It isn't an abstract theory nor pie-in-the-sky utopianism. Rather, it pulls together and builds upon the various elements of solidarity-based economy that already exist. Some are new innovations,some are old, and we already have a variety of experiences in Asia.And the journey of creation is ongoing.We look forward to seeing you there !!
