Summary of the project

This Project intends to contribute to guaranteeing modalities of production and consumption (ODS12). In Andalusia there exist several initiatives of networks and markets for local, ecological and fair trade products. However, these initiatives are fragmented so they only reach a very specific sector of society. The activities envisaged for this project seek to increase the number of people who know this type of suppliers and experiences, as well as to improve the visibility, formation, coordination and synergies among the sustainable production organizations of Andalusia. To this effect, the intention is to bring together these initiatives under the umbrella of the Social Market of Andalusia, as a network of production distribution and consumption of goods and services, connecting the different initiatives in a single circuit, shared and coherent with the principles of Social and Solidary Economy. In this way there will exist the capacity to organize fairs, workshops to develop awareness and formation, as well as to promote the Thematic Focus on Social Markets in the Third International Congress for Social and Solidary Economy that is being organized by the University of Córdoba and REAS Andalusia, planned for December, 2018.
