Implementing the SDGs: What Role for Social and Solidarity Economy?
CALL FOR PAPERS by UNs Inter-Agency Task Force on Social and Solidarity Economy (UNTFSSE).
UNTFSSE is inviting paper proposals to assess the contribution of Social and Solidarity Economy (SSE) to inclusive and sustainable development, with a particular emphasis on local contexts.
Organized by UNRISD, in its role as coordinator of the Task Force’s recently established Knowledge Hub, the Call for Papers aims to identify and mobilize research from different regions and territories that critically examines the role of SSE as a means of implementation for the SDGs.
Authors of the selected papers will be invited to present their work at a conference at the United Nations in Geneva, planned for April 2019. Selected submissions will also gain visibility through publication as working papers and think pieces. As publications under the banner of the Task Force’s Knowledge Hub, the pieces selected will have international impact and will contribute to UN efforts to scale up and promote SSE as means of implementation of the SDGs.
Visit UNRISD webpage for more information about the event, and how to submit abstracts.
Deadline for abstract submission: 2 August 2018
