In the course of the congress, both national and international dimensions will be adressed with hot topics like trade (TTIP and other trade agreements), climate change, fair trade and positive examples of the regional fora for solidarity economy in Latin America, as well as in other continents like Asia and Africa. There will also will be a focus on convergences among different alternative economy movements. The event will end on Sunday the 13th of September with the \u201eplanning\u201c of the next steps.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The main organizer of the congress is the German Forum for Solidarity Economy. Co-\u00adorganizers are <strong>RIPESS Europe, the ZTG (Center for Technology and Society at the Tech University Berlin), the ZEWK (Centre for Scientific Further Education and Cooperation at the TU Berlin) as well as other 40 other partners.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>RIPESS Europe \u00a0co-organized the 3rd Congress<\/strong> (after Barcelona in 2011 and Lille in 2013), from 10thto 13th September 2015 in Berlin, with the Forum Solidarische Oekonomie network. This event will allow both the German networks to exchange and build new strategic visions of organization and action, but it\u2019s also an opportunity for the whole European network to make a complete review of our activities until now, strategize and continue the expansion of solidarity economy in Europe. We invite you to actively participate and send your ideas and suggestions. We are already working on a program to have the opportunity to discuss with other alternative economy approaches (from the transition towns to degrowth, from the commons and peer economy, to fair trade, etc.). This will help us verify the possibility we have about \u201cconvergences\u201d among the different approaches and progress on several topics. A workshop will be dedicated to the about Soclidarity Economy Overview in Europe also.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>The 4th General Assembly<\/strong> will take place during the congress, on Friday <strong>11th September 2015<\/strong>, between<strong> 2:30 PM to 6:30 PM. \u00a0<\/strong>The proposed\u00a0agenda is\u00a0the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Activity Report of RIPESS Europe for 2014<\/li>\n<li>Financial report of RIPESS Europe for 2014<\/li>\n<li>Strategic Orientation of RIPESS Europe for 2015-2018<\/li>\n<li>Presentation of European project supported by RIPESS Europe<\/li>\n<li>New Membership requests\u00a0presentations<\/li>\n<li>Renewal of Coordination committee<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em><strong>FOR MORE INFORMATION FOR THE GA : [<a href=\"http:\/\/: http:\/\/ripess.eu\/4th-general-as\u2026ly-berlin-2015\/\" target=\"_blank\">Click here<\/a>]<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<h6 style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Practical information for the Congress<\/span><\/strong>:<\/h6>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Please find here : <a href=\"http:\/\/www.solikon2015.org\/en\/concept-solikon2015\">The Solikon Concept<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Find here the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.solikon2015.org\/en\/program\">GENERAL PROGRAM<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Find here <a href=\"http:\/\/ripess.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/RIPESS-Europe-program-Solikon20151.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">RIPESS Europe PROGRAM\u00a0<\/a>(Workshop, Roundtable and plenary animated by the RIPESS Europe)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">Location of the event :<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Stra\u00dfe des 17.
