Rebirth of the partnership for the promotion of the transforming social economy of Lizarralde
- The network claims the right to live and work in Estella and in the villages of the area, and aims to promote an economic model at the service of people. The entity supported by more than 30 projects will have an office at the Estella bus station.
The Transformative Social Economy for All project network will be strongly activated to drive the creation of new projects in Estella and its Merindad. The presentation ceremony, held on Friday, involved several projects of the network and read a statement in favour of the social economy of Lizarralde. The association's office was also presented at the Estella bus station (Plaza de la Coronación).
The objective of the Association for All, resurrected by the Hauspotu program, is to promote in Tierra Estella an economic model at the service of people. It also aims to contribute to the creation of a more just and supportive society, promoting and promoting the development of initiatives of social and collective interest.
In this sense, he claims the right to live and work in Estella and in the municipalities that give life to Merindad. It also aims to reinforce and promote initiatives by entrepreneurs who want to build a future in Estella, promote generational change and face the loss of shops and services in Merindad. All this with respect for the environment and under the values of the green and feminist economy.
To try to achieve these goals, the Partnership for All has begun to draw a roadmap.
Changing the environment since 2013
The partnership for all was born in 2013, when a group of friends from Estella, amidst the economic crisis, decided to continue living and working in the region, facing economic migration and betting on building their lives and future in their peoples. In this context, projects that continue to be relevant in Estella emerged, such as Mugi Aventura, Uztaldi, Lur Soinuak or Txiriting.
In this new phase of partnership for all, more than twenty projects from Estella and the region have been joined: Isoki, Kukuta Ludolab, Bodega Lezaun, Ametsa Producciones, Dragon Comics, Iñaki Luthier, Baku Barrikupel, Zunbeltz maderas, Camping Aritzaleku, Axier Hezi Artesanias, Axeltza Gasnategi, Eureka Ametsa de la
In addition, the network for All aims to strengthen relations with local entities, as well as with supramunicipal agents and entities. In fact, it is clear that "to promote the socioeconomic transformation that Lizarraldea needs, collaboration between different people is essential" and that "working together and all will make the region a place to live, work and build life projects".
