This week, the final meeting of the “Introduction to Cooperativism” course took place, organized by the Municipality of Concordia in conjunction with the UNER Faculty of Food Sciences, reaffirming its commitment to the promotion of the social economy and community strengthening.
The day included an enriching Cooperative Experiences Panel, where prominent representatives participated, such as Amalia López, member of the CADE Cooperative; the Nuevo Futuro Cooperative; the CREAR Educational Cooperative; and the Coopetrapo School Cooperative. These inspiring experiences allowed for reflection on the positive impact of cooperatives in the region and the value of collaboration in building a solidarity-based economy.
At the end of the panel, certificates were awarded to the course participants and the invited cooperatives. The Director of Cooperativism and Associativism of the Municipality of Concordia, Ariel Gorostegui, and his technical team participated in this instance, along with Eng. Celeste Stirnemann from the Faculty of Food Sciences.
The course, taught by Ariel Gorostegui and Celeste Stirnemann, provided essential tools to understand and foster cooperativism in the community. In the words of Ariel Gorostegui: “This course is proof that, through cooperation, great transformations can be generated. We want to continue supporting cooperatives and strengthening this model that drives collective development and social inclusion.”
With this initiative, the Municipality of Concordia reaffirms its purpose of offering educational spaces that foster joint work, solidarity, and regional development.
