Materials, videos and shared knowledge at the service of the network – Ateneu

The Ateneus Cooperativa Network (XAC) has published the complete and definitive relative of the plenary held in Granollers, a key meeting that gathered representatives of the Cooperative Athenians, ESS projects, institutions and territorial agents to reflect, share and move together in the consolidation of cooperativism throughout the country.

This storytelling is not only a synthesis document, but also a return and deepening tool that allows to recover debates, collective contributions and the contents set forth during the day. They are collected:

• Them Main shared ideas In the different tables and workspaces.
• The access to the Materials and presentations used by the speakers.
• The full videos of the two thematic formations which were carried out during the meeting.

Available video training:

1. Industry and ESS: A session focused on the potential of cooperativism to transform the industrial sector, with specific experiences and shared challenges.
2. Cooperative Housing: A space to reflect on the models of access to housing based on collective property, self -management and community rooting.

These videos and materials may be useful to deepen the contents, but also to work in internal spaces of the Athenians, technical seminars or training activities.

An encounter to strengthen intercooperation and territory

The plenary of Granollers was a space of exchange highly valued by the participants, who were able to get to know inspiring experiences, detect common needs and generate new complicity. In a time of rethinking the economic and social model, spaces like this are key to strengthening alliances, shared strategic gaze and mutual support between territories.

The day also served to value the capacity of the ESS territorial networks to influence key sectors such as industrial production and housing, and to continue to build common tools from collective practice.
