As part of ReThinkable – the cross-border festival of transformative economies organised by the proDes, we invite you to cross into Veneto to discover two initiatives rooted in the principles of solidarity economy.
We’ll visit the BioFattoria Didattica Rio Selva, a long-standing project in the Treviso area that became a cohousing initiative in 2008, and OltreConfin, an association that, since 2017, has created a solidarity economy network of organic producers in Venice, Mestre, and Treviso.
This will be an opportunity to meet the people behind these initiatives, understand how they operate and their goals, and exchange ideas and reflections. A chance to learn from new experiences, get inspired, and explore fresh perspectives!
Booking is mandatory via the Google form found here.
Registrations close on 10 December.
