Abstract
The international conference “Social Solidarity Economy and the Commons - Contributions to the Deepening of Democracy” was held on November 6th-8th 2019 at the Instituto Universitário de Lisboa (ISCTE-IUL) in Lisbon (Portugal). Its aim was to promote dialogue and exchanges of knowledge and experience among academics, practitioners and civil society activists about new governance models of the commons and the necessity to find alternative or complementary socio-economic development paradigms based on new spaces for collective action to re-establish social ties and build new life and work opportunities. This short report, included in the JEOD “Conference letter” section, retraces and briefly illustrates the main findings emerged during the conference.
