• Action by people locally• to create economic

opportunities and enhance social and environmental conditions

• particularly with those most marginalised

• on a sustainable and inclusive basis.

CED, an alternative to conventional approaches to economic development, is founded on the belief that problems facing communities – unemployment, poverty, job loss, environmental degradation and loss of community control – are best addressed by a community-led, grassroots, integrated approach.

The Social Economy

The third pillar of a plural economy

serves members or the community, instead of profit.

autonomous of the State by statute and practice, establishes a democratic

decision‑making process with participation of users and workers

prioritizes people and work over capital in the distribution of revenue and surplus

activities based on principles of participation, empowerment, and individual and collective responsibility.
