Implementing the Sustainable Development Goals: What Role for Social and Solidarity Economy?

CONFERENCE organized by UNRISD.

A focus on combining social, environmental and economic aims is common to both the social and solidarity economy (SSE) and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). So what do we know about how well SSE is contributing to the SDGs?

This is the question behind this conference, the international edition of a series of conferences resulting from the Call for Papers "Implementing the Sustainable Development Goals: What Role for Social and Solidarity Economy?" which was launched by the United Nations Inter-Agency Task Force on Social and Solidarity Economy (UNTFSSE) in 2018 and organized by UNRISD.

Researchers, practitioners and policy decision maker interested in sharing and exchanging evidence and ideas about the connections between SSE and people, planet, prosperity, participation and partnerships in different local contexts are invited to register to attend the conference.

The conference will be held at: Room II at R3 South, International Labour Office, Geneva, Switzerland.
