SEE President Juan Antonio Pedreño has declared “This Action Plan represents a historic opportunity for all social economy enterprises and organisations. The opportunity to gain social visibility, to grow, inspire citizens, future entrepreneurs and policy makers in Europe and beyond. The opportunity to make our collective efforts converge and be a key player for a fair and just recovery and in building our collective future, the future of Europe.
