March 19-22, 2009 "Solidarity Economy Forum," University of Massachusetts, Amherst, MA organized by the U.S. Solidarity Economy Network.

This
will be the inaugural conference of U.S. SEN. We had originally planned
to hold it in New Orleans in December but had to change both the time
and place for various reasons. Holding the Forum in the Pioneer Valley
in Western Massachusetts will make the logistics much easier as well as
enable us to showcase the wealth of solidarity economy practices in the
area. See Pioneer Valley Solidarity Map.
