Video interviews of our 2 new members !
Interview of Martin from ESS'plicites (Bordeaux, France)

ESSplicite federates SSE trainings in New-Aquitaine in connection with the actors of the sector, raises the awareness of young people to this theme and accompanies them in the realisation of their projects.

The association participates in the regional strategy to raise awareness of SSE among young people in partnership with the N-A region, ESPER and the concerned structures of the territory. The principle is to share and mutualise approaches, especially on interventions in middle and high schools. Essplicite organises various recurring and one-off events such as coffee-debates, conferences, webinars, ... The flagship event of the year is a hackathon: "The 24h of Social and Environmental Innovation. The objective is to help young people to imagine common projects by promoting transdisciplinarity, and thus encourage meetings and links between SSE actors, projects and motivated young people.

 

Interview of Agnes and Benjamin from the Solidarity Economy Center (Budapest, Hungary)

“Our aim is to support and build solidarity economy in Hungary. Our activities include research, consultancy and ecosystem development. Next to operational assistance to existing solidarity economy organizations, we build model projects in association with our partner organizations, and actively seek new collaborations with social enterprises, movements and trade unions. Our model projects have a double purpose: to develop sustainable enterprises in areas of key importance for a regenerative economy, and to build scalable models and policy proposals for local authorities, trade unions and other public operators.”
