Program

Some 60 speakers from the political, academic and enterprise sectors will be taking the floor over the 2 days to offer an overview of current issues and share experiences at local, national, European and international levels.

Discovering more about Social Economy will be also possible through enterprise visits as well as a visit to the Social Economy Village.

Plenary session

On the basis of an addressed issue, both policy-makers from European institutions and Member States and scientific experts share their point of view, the most recent developments within their remit and make commitments for the future. The topics are addressed in a general way and at a macroeconomic level based on the focused transition theme.

Workshop

The workshops present various good practices and refer to the reality on the ground in Europe and around the world: the process followed by entrepreneurs and the way they work. By bringing together different practices around a common theme, participants will have an overview within the EU of the analyzed area.

Round Table

Round tables aim to reflect on the commitments and objectives of the plenary session around a chosen theme. In a round table, speakers analyse from various angles how the political objectives can be put into practice. The various speakers, including at least one enterprise or concrete project, actively debate on the obstacles and opportunities and propose guidelines and solutions.
