Social inclusion functions through economic activities with the individualization and destabili¬zing of work structures, difficulties of reaching collective negotiations, limited activities of pro¬duction of goods and services without concern for its collective use and emancipation through work. How do we take all the necessary aspects into account when creating and maintaining socially purposeful work with decent working conditions? In which conditions can this type of insertion through economics reveal a way to fight poverty and exclusion? Do the different ways of organizing an economic structure have an influence on social inclusion? This is the question that we’re going to explore and base our examples on, from the North as well as the South. This session will be animated by two southern speakers, Salufa Nunu from the Democratic Republic of Congo and Augusto Silva de Faria from Brazil. You can apply from now to participate in contacting your sending organisations.
