The Social and Solidarity Economy: From the Margins to the Mainstream

Charting the way forward: mainstreaming the social and solidarity economy

Sep 16, 2021 | 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM

Achieving impact

Description

Mainstreaming social economy means both recognising its role as a full economic agent of systemic change and innovation, and expanding and multiplying its social impact for the benefit of the whole society. Building back better implies injecting more social responsibility into the economic sphere. Social economy organisations can inspire new business models to include more responsible practices and behaviours. What can countries do to bring the social and solidarity economy to the next level? How can the OECD support this shift? This session will chart the way forward for sustained support of social and solidarity economy development.
