From swap shops and childcare circles to housing co-ops and community farms, we\u2019ve got a thriving network of initiatives meeting the needs of our communities in ways that put people, and our environment, first.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Around the world, activity like this is known as the solidarity economy. In many cities and countries \u2013 from New York City to Barcelona, and from Mali to Brazil \u2013 solidarity economy initiatives play a fundamental role in people\u2019s lives.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In New York City, a group of people came together to create <a href=\"http:\/\/solidaritynyc.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">a map of their solidarity economy<\/a>, and this map has helped to make their city\u2019s communities more onnected, their projects and initiatives stronger, and has helped more people to be able to access the products and services they need in ethical and sustainable ways.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>We\u2019ve been exploring whether creating a map in Oxford is similarly helpful for our communities.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>A big part of SEA\u2019s mission is to make the solidarity economy in the UK stronger, and to encourage more people to find out about it and support in their local area. Our Mapping the Solidarity Economy in Oxford pilot project is about celebrating what\u2019s important in our city\u2019s communities, and showing how all the different projects, initiatives and organisations are helping to create a more just and sustainable world.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Together, we are creating an alternative economy based on cooperation and self-determination, which empowers everyone, regardless of race, sexual orientation, gender or background, and which cares about the health and well-being of people and the planet.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Our longer-term vision is also to show how the solidarity economy that exists in communities, cities and regions in the United Kingdom is part of a much larger movement of people around the world, all working to transform our economic system into a system that works for all.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/oxford.solidarityeconomy.coop\/resources\/SolidarityOxford.Pilot.Project.Report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Download our Pilot Project Report<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>More info <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/oxford.solidarityeconomy.coop\/\">here <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Solidarity Oxford is a website and digital map which has been produced as part of the Solidarity Economy Association\u2019s Mapping the Solidarity Economy in Oxford pilot project.
