CECOP Online Conference | ALL FOR ONE | Save the date | 03.12.2020

Online meeting

Meeting

Conference on the response of worker-owned cooperatives to non-standard employment Online - 3 December, 2020

Non-standard workers are becoming the new standard. This raises several concerns on ever-deteriorating labour rights and conditions, endangered decent income, access to social rights, and collective representation. Since the industrial revolution, worker-owned cooperatives respond to people’s needs to guarantee their employment. Many non-standard workers such as own-account workers, freelancers, and platform workers use the cooperative solutions to achieve more quality, job security, often access to social protection, and dignity in their work lives. In the last months, the COVID-19 pandemic showed that the recognition of non-standard workers, including platform workers, remains a challenge in national and European labour regulations, leaving workers vulnerable and making fitting policies complicated to obtain. The failure to adapt national and European labour legislation to cover non-standard workers worsened the impact of the current crisis, putting workers incomes and livelihoods at risk. Following the publication of the ALL FOR ONE report, CECOP’s ALL FOR ONE online conference will look at what the “cooperative laboratory” across Europe came up with in order to face the adverse effects of non-standard employment. Originally planned as a live conference, our online conference will be the cherry on top of a month-long communication campaign, in which we will highlight different aspects of the report through social media channels and distribution lists. Everyday forefront defenders of fair and quality work conditions for all workers, CECOP invites you to meet these new cooperatives who unite workers, and mutualise risks and solidarity.

Join us on December 3rd online from wherever you are for this one of a kind event!

Solidarity economy in Turkey: first encounters between actors and researchers

Online meeting

Conference

The conference entitled "The solidarity economy in Turkey: the first encounters between actors and researchers" acknowledge that solidarity economy is rooted and based on the practices of the actors who conceive it, the theory being built in dialogue with them.
Therefore, through this event, we seek to give a voice to actors in various workshops and to foster a real dialogue with academics around the issues they identify, to better understand the plural forms of economic alternatives in Turkey. It is through these workshops and this method to participate in the production of common knowledge around solidarity alternatives. It is an invitation to establish bridges, mutual knowledge, links which could lead to various projects and future meetings. It should make it possible to deepen a shared knowledge of practices and reflections around the solidarity economy in Turkey, and to enter into dialogue with other players and researchers in the European area. The conference is open to anyone interested in the challenges of developing the solidarity economy.

The solidarity economy in Turkey: first meetings between actors and researchers
14 December 2020 - 9.30 am - 5.45 pm - online

Languages: Turkish / translation into French
The international colloquium "Solidarity economy in Turkey: first meetings between actors and researchers" organised by Galatasray University under the responsibility of Olivier Gajac, Selin Pelek, Cem Özatalay and Cemil Yıldızcan will bring together Turkish initiatives and researchers to exchange on current events in the solidarity economy in Turkey.

This day of meetings built in collaboration with Jean-Louis Laville (CNAM and FMSH, scientific committee of RIPESS Europe) and Laura Aufrère (University Sorbonne Paris Nord and RIPESS Europe) should allow to deepen a shared knowledge of practices and reflections around the solidarity economy.

The different workshops are organised on the principle of dialogue, based on presentations made by the actors of their activities, sharing their analyses of the identified issues, which will be led by academics from Galatasaray University, ODTÛ University and Doḡus University. Short food circuits, local cooperatives, self-help groups, popular universities: the day will bring together solidarity alternatives from Turkey in their diversity.
With the contribution of the researchers invited to the final round table, Aslıhan Aykaç from the University of Ege, Fikret Adaman from the University Boḡazici and the contribution of Jean-Louis Laville, the aim will be to identify common issues and particularities: it is an invitation to respond to the epistemological challenges of the social and solidarity economy in Turkey and to establish inter-knowledge that could lead to different projects and future meetings.
This day should also provide an opportunity to enter into dialogue with other actors and researchers from the European area. Laura Aufrère, doctoral student, member of the coordination committee and the scientific committee of RIPESS Europe (Intercontinental Network for the Promotion of the Social Solidarity Economy) will propose avenues for cooperation in this respect at the end of the day.
Representatives of initiatives in Turkey, members of the RIPESS network are invited to participate in the exchanges, as well as Turkish researchers and/or members of the scientific committee of the network and students who will be able to follow the day and speak. The conference is open to anyone interested in the challenges of solidarity economy development.
We warmly thank Galatasaray University and the institutional partners and contributors, the Consortium and the French Institute of Turkey.
