ICSW - Global Cooperation newsletter January 2016 : Social welfare for all: the potential of a Social Solidarity Economy

2016 is the first year of the ambitious United Nations plan to achieve sustainable development by 2030. What is striking is the close link of many, if not most, of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals to issues related to social welfare, social justice, human rights, health and education, housing, food and nutrition, in other words to all aspects of human life that are at the core of the ICSW’s work.
