Social Economy and the 2030 Agenda: Localizing Goals, Co-Creating Policies

UNRISD is hosting a session at the Global Social Economy Forum, being held in Bilbao on 1-3 October 2018, at which it launches the full research results of the project Social and Solidarity Economy for the SDGs: Spotlight on the Social Economy in Seoul.

Participants at this event, largely SSE practitioners, local government officers and civil society stakeholders, will also hear Prof. Marguerite Mendell from Concordia University, Canada, present her research on the co-construction of public policies for SSE in Quebec.
