Puerto Rico Social Solidarity Network

Our new series will spotlight networks that are working to create Wellbeing Economies in their states.

Each session in this webinar series will spotlight one state network as they share their vision for progress, highlight the economic transformations they are working toward, and the key actors involved in driving change.

This is an opportunity for participants to learn directly from those on the ground, hearing about strategies, successes, and lessons learned. The conversations will not only explore the “what” of each network’s work, but also the “how” behind building an economy designed to serve people and the planet.

The Puerto Rico Social Solidarity Network is a platform that connects people and organizations to promote and foster the social solidarity economy. The network emerged after a series of economical disasters and from the coop and community development movements to influence economic transformation for a sustainable, integral, human development for the common good.

Joel Franqui is one of the leaders of the Puerto Rico Social Solidarity Economy Network. He studied Solidarity Economics under Luis Razeto, a prominent LatinAmerican academic, and practices it at EcoTienda LaChiwi, his Fairtrade store
