A conversation about Social Economy
As a lover of podcasts and all forms of audio media, from radio to audiobooks, I am thrilled to be part of the "Druga Wersja // podcast poznański." Editor Leszek Waligóra and I engage in a discussion about social economy [49:50]. Thank you for the invitation!
Welcome to "Druga Wersja // podcast poznański," a Polish language podcast that explores various topics related to business, economy, science, culture and sport, entrepreneurs, community workers, activists, politicians and everyone else who has an impact on life in our city of Poznań.
As an avid fan of podcasts and audio media, ranging from radio shows to audiobooks, I am delighted to have been invited to join Editor Leszek Waligóra in this engaging conversation.
Together, we explore the principles and values that underpin the social economy, presenting it as an alternative to the profit-driven capitalism that dominates traditional economic models.
At its core, the social economy emphasises empathy and social impact.
It reminds us that economics is, fundamentally, a social science, a fact that often gets overlooked in contemporary discussions.
I invite you to listen to the entire podcast episode. However, if you are particularly interested in the social and economic aspects, you can jump straight into the conversation with me starting from the 49:50 minute.
During our discussion, we shed light on what social economy entails and dispel any misconceptions surrounding it. We also address the challenges faced by organizations implementing social economy principles and explore ways in which individuals can actively participate in this movement.
