The first half of 2023 Sweden has the Presidency of the Council of the European Union. In June the most important European players in the field of social economy gather in Gothenburg, at a conference highlighting the role of social economy in creating a stronger and more resilient Europe.
The “Social Economy 2023 – Building a stronger and resilient Europe”’ conference is planned in close cooperation with European experts and stakeholders, and focuses on the Social Economy Action Plan and its implementation. It builds on last year’s Strasbourg conference “Social Economy – Future of Europe” which was included in the official program of the French Presidency and it bridges to the equivalent events to be held under the coming Spanish presidency in San Sebastian (November 2023) and the Belgian one in Liege (February 2024).
