BCI + Cooperation New Orleans Launch the Solidarity Economy Research Exchange Program

This June, two organizers from Cooperation New Orleans (CNO) will be joining BCI’s community researchers for our summer regional listening campaign

CNO will bring PAR practices and experience back to New Orleans. Our projects share a commitment to transforming our world through the solidarity economy —toward power for poor and working-class Black, Latinx, and Indigenous people, freedom for queer and trans people, international worker solidarity and ecological sustainability. You can support this project here.

If you want to learn more about solidarity economy organizing as a power building strategy, we encourage you to check out these short audio and text excerpts of the recent Nonprofit Quarterly series on Solidarity Economies, featuring Maya Pen from CNO and Felix Macaraeg from BCI.
