The project is dedicated to all the associations and informal groups that, operating in the area of solidarity-based social economy, contribute daily to the development of the territories where they are rooted and thus play a crucial role in the cultural and economic change of communities, but that, at the same time, are hardly able to ‘look up’ and have an exchange at European level. Looking Up therefore intends to strengthen the skills of activists, volunteers, and workers of these associations and their awareness of the policies and strategies that at a European level drive local development actions in the various territories. And it intends to do so through peer-to-peer training and a bottom-up approach, involving from the very beginning, in a dynamic of co-planning, 6 local organisations as local referents and multipliers, capable of directing the training course towards concrete needs.
ENGLISH:“ There is no economy, no technology, no politics and no society without nature and without care“, says Yayo Herrero, pointing out how the neoliberal society we inhabit has built a way of organizing life in common, a way of organizing politics, economy, culture, etc., that develops in opposition to the material bases that allow us to sustain life. Faced with this, Feminist Economics allows us to do an exercise to recognize the (co)dependencies that we have among us and with nature, and above all makes visible what has traditionally invisibilized the conventional speculative economy: care and who exercises it.We invite you to collectively learn about this through this course. Come and join us! *This course has been developed in Spanish, which means that it is based on the knowledge and experiences developed in Spain. Then it has been translated into English and French adapting the bibliographic materials to these languages. We have tried to maintain the essence of the course at all times and therefore we have kept basic concepts of the Spanish language. If you want to access the course in different languages just change the language in the drop-down menu at the bottom right.SPANISH: "No hay economía, ni tecnología, ni política, ni sociedad sin naturaleza y sin cuidados", dice Yayo Herrero, señalando cómo la sociedad neoliberal que habitamos ha construido una forma de organizar la vida en común, una forma de organizar la política, la economía, la cultura, etc., que se desarrolla en oposición a las bases materiales que nos permiten sostener la vida. Frente a esto, la Economía Feminista nos permite hacer un ejercicio de reconocimiento de las (co)dependencias que tenemos entre nosotras y con la naturaleza, y sobre todo visibiliza lo que tradicionalmente ha invisibilizado la economía especulativa convencional: el cuidado y quién lo ejerce. Te invitamos a aprender colectivamente sobre ello a través de este curso. ¡Ven y únete a nosotrxs!

Elle signale comment la société néolibérale que nous habitons a construit une manière d'organiser la vie en commun, une manière d'organiser la politique, l'économie, la culture, etc. qui se développe en opposition aux bases matérielles qui nous permettent de porter la vie. Face à cela, l'économie féministe nous permet de faire un exercice de reconnaissance des (co)dépendances que nous avons entre nous et avec la nature, et surtout elle rend visible ce qui a été traditionnellement rendu invisible par l'économie spéculative conventionnelle : le prendre soin et qui l'exerce. Nous vous invitons à apprendre collectivement le message de l'économie féministe à travers ce cours, venez nombreuses et nombreux ! *Ce cours a été développé en espagnol, ce qui signifie qu'il est basé sur les connaissances et les expériences développées en Espagne.

This project arises from the hand of a group of young people from different organisations, which established the need and desire to build a joint project by and for young people under the main idea that “Young people lack Social Solidarity Economy, and above all, that SSE lacks young people”.We believe that youth have a very important role to play in building a more just society, and we also believe that we need to continue creating critical learning tools that allow us to build alternatives.In building this more just society, we have to decide what we do with our money to avoid further speculation and put life and communities at the center.Do you know where your bank invests your money? Do you know what Ethical finance and local currencies are? Have you ever thought about the possibility of a political activism campaign?We invite you to answer these questions and much more through the 4 modules of this course.The course is completely self-managed, you can start and finish it as you wish and you are very welcome to make contributions and initiate discussions, just need to register to get started.The content is available in English, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and Greek. You can change language in the dropdown above or by clicking on your profile once you have registered.Do you want to join us?
