Solidary Economy Board

The Solidary Economy Board of Tandil is an area made up of entrepreneurs, producers, family farmers, cooperatives, fairgrounds and commercialization and state institutions and agencies working from the perspective of a social and solidarity economy. Its members include the Tandil Reference Center of the Ministry of Social Development of the Nation, the Social and Solidarity Economy Program of the Extension Secretariat of the National University of the Center, INTI, the Undersecretariat of Family Agriculture of the Nation and the Employment Department of the Ministry of Labor of the Nation. The board works towards the collective construction of institutional alternatives that allow the strengthening and promotion of the sector in Tandil. Thus, in various participatory instances and partly with the collaboration of the State, the Board organizes fairs, forums, seminars, proposals for training and education, etc. Based on the experiences gathered in meetings, workshops, forums and workdays held for more than two years, the Board prepared a draft Ordinance that was presented to the Deliberative Council of Tandil.
