OUR NETWORKS
To achieve our goals, we collaborate with various organizations. We firmly believe in networking, building alliances, and collective intelligence. Together, we can accomplish anything, as they say.
That’s why, when we talk about us, we also refer to the networks we are part of:
La Teulada, Xarxa Cooperativa de Tarragona
We are one of the driving forces behind La Teulada, the cooperative network of Tarragona that brings together various social economy initiatives and projects in the city. La Teulada provides resources, advice, and support for the creation and consolidation of cooperatives, promoting values of democracy, participation, and sustainability.
CoopCamp, Ateneu Cooperatiu del Camp
We actively participate in CoopCamp, the Cooperative Athenaeum of the Camp de Tarragona, which promotes the social and solidarity economy through support, training, and the encouragement of new cooperative initiatives. CoopCamp also serves as a platform for meeting and exchanging ideas between cooperative and social economy projects in our region.
Factoría de Ciclistas
We are part of Factoría de Ciclistas, the organization that brings together and coordinates those who use the 1bici+ method for urban cycling training.
Federació de Cooperatives de Treball de Catalunya
We are members of the Federació de Cooperatives de Treball de Catalunya, the leading organization that unites, represents, and defends the interests of worker cooperatives in Catalonia. We benefit from their advisory, training, and support services, while also participating in the inter-cooperation spaces they promote.
En Bici Sense Edat
We coordinate the Tarragona chapter of En Bici Sense Edat, the Catalan NGO that has been part of the global network since 2016. This social volunteer project promotes electric tricycle rides for elderly people or those with reduced mobility.
