We promote Social Economy in Barcelona

The Social and Solidarity Economy (SEE) is the network of cooperative companies and entities that seek to build an economy linked to the community, the well-being of people, democratic management and sustainability. Did you know?  

At Barcelona Activa, we encourage the SEE to become increasingly present in the city’s economy.
