· Development Cooperation
español | euskaraz | english


From our point of view, Cooperating with the South means:
 
- giving back, as opposed to patronising ideas of donation and aid;
- offering solidarity, not compassion;
- putting up resistance, to face the neoliberalism that destroys communities, people and liberating projects;
- helping popular movements in their fight for social justice and freedom;
- supporting the emancipation of people against economic globalisation and the neoliberal order.
 
And always with the utmost respect, not through cultural colonialism and the imposition of economic and social models.

  • An economic axis based on endogenous development and Popular Economies. 
  • A democratic axis based on citizens' participation and the strengthening of municipalities.
The axes mentioned above are, in turn, part of three cross axes:
