Education

Our new educational platform for Social Solidarity Economy kalomathe.gr is ready  

What is the value of self-management as an idea and practice? How is self-management materialized in different areas of activity? Which are the emerging challenges? These and other interesting questions will be explored in common by members of active initiatives from the field and the wider scientific community in Rapsani at 31st of August and 1-2 of September 2018. 

Responding to the intensified social inclusion needs of vulnerable social groups (mainly but not exclusively refugees and migrants), the ERGANI Centre for the Support of Women Employment and Entrepreneurship in partership with Heinrich Boell Stiftung Greece, the Self-Help Promoting Programme of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, the Network of Social Cooperative Enterprises of Central Macedonia, the Greek Social Entrepreneurship Forum and the Select Respect Forum decided to organize a focused training seminar. The seminar is addressed to professionals in support centres for vulnerable social groups as well as to intercultural mediators.

How do we inform citizens about setting up an energy cooperative? What training needs arise as citizens become prosumers? These are some of the questions that will be discussed at the workshop "Setting up and strenthening of energy cooperatives in Greece" that will be held on Friday 1 December, in Athens.
