Solidarity economy everywhere :
the challenges of the new decade

For this first newsletter of the year 2020, the members of the Coordination Committee of RIPESS Europe wish you all the best for your initiatives to spread solidarity in a context that requires from each one of us a lot of pugnacity and wisdom to resist the destructive tendencies of a world in full upheaval.

What to wish for at the turn of a new decade? The abandonment of nuclear weapons, the end of the scepticism on climate change and the initiation of real and effective measures to reverse the current trend of a deterioration in the living conditions of all species, including our own, the awareness of the obscenity of the fortunes of plutocrats compared to the appalling levels of misery in all countries that suffer the predation and devaluation of their wealth, the cultural change that breaks down borders and walls to make it possible to establish equality and fraternity among peoples. These are all pious wishes, but one cannot help but express them at the dawn of a new year.


In the meantime, RIPESS Europe continues its peaceful advocacy for a world where these wishes would become the norm.

Simply put a word in the search engine and the results show what is in socioeco.org as well as in other databases. The logo of each site precedes the title of each document and if you click on it, you will find yourself on the site in question.
