Social Good Week evolves:
Welcome to ‘Numérique en commun[s] ESS Europe’
We are pleased to announce that Social Good Week 2022 will give way to a new event called “Numérique en Commun[s] ESS Europe”. The name is changing, but the objectives remain as strong as ever: to shine a spotlight on the digital social economy, its potential and its challenges, and to mobilise for its recognition as a key driver of sustainable transition in Europe.
Numérique en Commun[s] (NEC) ESS Europe, supported by the Agence Nationale de Cohésion des Territoires (ANCT) and the Crédit Coopératif, creates links between the Numérique en Commun[s] ecosystem, made up of players in digital mediation, social centres, third places, public players, and players in the social economy: associations, foundations, cooperatives, with a European reach. All with a European reach, making this event a real crossroads of ideas and opportunities.
The programme: connecting social economy, digital and Europe
The NEC ESS Europe programme aims to support digital initiatives in the social economy in Europe through two main components:
