Hello Comrades! Hola Compañeras, *compañeroas* y compañeros!<br>
<br>
<br>
4th Festival for Solidarity & Cooperative Economy<br>
<br>
Academia Platonos Park- Athens<br>
<br>
Members of various solidarity networks, cooperative initiatives and<br>
innovative structures in Greece organise, for the fourth time in a row, the<br>
Festival for Solidarity & Cooperative Economy.<br>
The festival will take place in Athens in the 16-17-18th of October in<br>
Plato’s Academy Park.<br>
<br>
This year we would like to focus exclusively in action and highlight<br>
remarkable practices aiming to inspire society and prove that there are<br>
those alternatives that can help us meet our needs.<br>
<br>
We want to open more to society and to shout even louder our slogan<br>
"*Another<br>
world is real*" and necessary more than ever. A world based on creativity,<br>
self-sufficiency, sustainability and solidarity.<br>
<br>
For this reason we will create in the festival, an autonomous village in<br>
which practical workshops will be held, answers to basic questions will be<br>
given and discussions will be taking place.<br>
In the thematic corners of the village, the visitor will be able to meet or<br>
learn how to cover his needs for food, health, education, labor, energy,<br>
technology, housing, transportation etc. and find a way to express himself<br>
and create with his fellow villagers.<br>
<br>
Inside the festival will also function our alternative currency that we<br>
will use to make transactions with selected producers.<br>
Clothes and books exchange bazaar and collective kitchen will take place.<br>
People offering work (villagers) will be rewarded with free food for their<br>
services .<br>
<br>
The aim of the festival is to give a practical example of another world<br>
that is here, to prove that we can live in a different way.<br>
There will be presented an important effort to continuity of the<br>
functioning of the autonomous village beyond the end of the festival,<br>
through the creation of the Integral Cooperative in Athens.<br>
<br>
The Solidarity & Cooperative Economy Festival advocates a world that<br>
promotes communication and mutual exchange aiming to move towards a society<br>
based on participation and cooperation, self-management, solidarity,<br>
sustainability, self-sufficiency and respect to nature and human.<br>
<br>
We want the festival to speak to the hearts of those who seek alternative<br>
humane solutions. To provide inspiration for launching similar initiatives<br>
in other greek cities.<br>
We want to unite and together make it happen.<br>
We are waiting for you!<br>
