2nd Edition, 2005 : the visibility of the social economy

The event focused on how to make the social economy more visible and better known. In a period of globalization, how can the organizations in the social economy make themselves better understood, demonstrate their originality, communicate better, and gain better recognition ?

Alternating their time between panel discussions at plenary sessions and workshops on concrete project proposals, the participants also had a chance to reflect on the topics presented by international experts during the meetings.

The November 2005 Meetings, which were held near Annecy (France), also provided an opputunity to present the progress made on the project choosen in 2004 and to decide on new concrete projects to be undertaken.
