Last Thursday, April 24, the Cooperativa Athenians of the Baix Llobregat received the visit of David Bonvehí i TorrasGeneral Director of Social Economy and Cooperatives of the Generalitat de Catalunya. This meeting is part of the General Directorate’s desire to get to know first -hand the initiatives that take place throughout the territory and value the work that is done from the local level to promote a transformative economy.

During the day, several spaces were visited linked to the social and solidarity economy of the region, and projects, experiences and working methodologies were shared that have helped to make the Baix Llobregat a benchmark in the promotion of co -operatives and sustainable local development.

The visit made it possible to make visible the daily work of the Athenians, who act as a meeting point between entities, administrations and social initiatives, promoting a way of doing economics based on collaboration, respect for the territory and people, and the commitment to models of democratic governance.

In addition, it was an opportunity to strengthen alliances, detect shared challenges, and establish new bonds of joint work between the Generalitat and the agents in the territory. A very enriching day that reaffirms the importance of continuing to bet on a more rooted, participatory economy and the service of the common good.
