solidarity economies

Solidarity economies are systems that prioritize cooperation, mutual aid, and social justice over profit. They aim to create economic models that benefit communities and individuals instead of just corporations. This can include cooperatives, community-supported agriculture, fair trade initiatives, and other practices that emphasize shared resources and equitable distribution of wealth. The goal is to foster inclusive, sustainable development, empower marginalized groups, and promote environmental stewardship while ensuring that economic activities meet community needs. Essentially, solidarity economies seek to align economic practices with ethical values and social well-being.
