The Solidarity Economy

The Solidarity Economy is an approach that prioritizes social well-being, environmental sustainability, and inclusive decision-making over profit. It involves community-based businesses, cooperatives, and initiatives that operate democratically, sharing resources and profits fairly among members. This system aims to build economic activities rooted in cooperation, mutual support, and social justice, fostering resilience and empowerment within communities. Unlike traditional economy models focused mainly on individual gains, the Solidarity Economy emphasizes collective welfare, sustainability, and equitable relationships, creating a more just and supportive economic environment for all.
