What Does a Solidarity Economy Approach to Housing Look Like?

This event has concluded. Watch the replay here.

Today, affordable quality housing is often out of reach. Standard remedies tend to focus on tweaking regulations, zoning, and public subsidies. But what if systemic shifts are needed? That is a central claim of solidarity economy advocates.

In this free, 90-minute Shelterforce webinar, panelists will outline what a solidarity economy is, what its principles are, and ways these principles might be applied more broadly.

The event will be moderated by Steve Dubb, Shelterforce’s strategic initiatives editor. Our panelists are: 

Miki’ala Catalfano, cofounder and executive director of Native Roots Network.

Kali Akuno, cofounder and codirector of Cooperation Jackson.

Alison Chopel, professor at the Graduate School of Planning, University of Puerto Rico.
