May 2020 resources (in collaboration with socioeco.org)

20/05/2020

In these troubled times, and as we did last month, Coronavirus obliges, we invite you to read the documents with the keyword #COVID-19 with analytical articles on the world after the crisis and on solidarity during the health crisis. For example:

La contribution du Mouvement pour l’Economie Solidaire France à la sortie de crise COVID-19, 2020 [lire]
El café, el cacao y el coronavirus, con Hans Perk, Director Regional de Oikocredit para África, 28 abril de 2020 [lire]
Corona and the Commons, Michel Bauwens, 2020 [lire]

Several webinar recordings or videos on how different components of SSE are responding to the crisis are also online on this same keyword.

But we want to highlight also other issues:

La note d’analyse de Denis STOKKINK : Green deal et économie sociale : enjeux et perspectives, 2020 [lire]
Le projet TACITE : Vers une transition ordinaire. Retour sur les trois universités éphémères du programme Travail Autonome, Coopération, Innovations Sociales pour la Transition Ecologique (TACITE), Emmanuelle Besançon, Catherine Bodet, Philippe Chemla, Nicolas Chochoy, Geneviève Fontaine, Noémie De Grenier, Thomas Lamarche, Jennifer Saniossian, 2020 [lire]

or else:

The Future is Public Towards Democratic Ownership of Public Services, by Satoko Kishimoto, Lavinia Steinfort, Nara Petrovic, A TNI Publication 2020 [lire]

Abstract : Resistance to privatisation has turned into a powerful force for change. (Re)municipalisation refers to the reclaiming of public ownership of services as well as the creation of new public services. In recent years, our research has identified more than 1,400 successful (re)municipalisation cases involving more than 2,400 cities in 58 countries around the world.

When the circular economy becomes handi-solidarity: launch of the European Solifoodwaste network

Webinar

Within the framework of the European Solifoodwaste project (conducted since autumn 2019), Pour La Solidarité (PLS) invites you to the launch of the first European network of organizations committed to fighting food waste and to the (socio-)professional integration of the disabled on Tuesday 9 March. In Europe, nearly 88 million tons of food ends up in the garbage*. This figure is absurd at a time when we are talking about responsible consumption and the resilience of the European food system. It is imperative that a shift in the way we consume and produce must take place. At the same time, 16% of the working population in Europe is affected by a disability, and this proportion of the population is still experiencing too many difficulties integrating into the job market; the average activity rate for the disabled is only 48.7%, compared with 72.5% for so-called able-bodied people. These two issues have a priori nothing to do with each other and yet . Solifoodwaste is a European project that aims to simultaneously meet these challenges by developing economic activities to recycle unsold food by disabled people. Convinced that the effect of the project will be all the more important if it is carried out collectively, the SFW partnership invites you on Tuesday, March 9 (9:30 am to 12:00 pm) to the videoconference launching the very first European network of organizations committed to fighting food waste and to the (socio-)professional integration of the disabled.
