Economía social un impulso hacia la sostenibilidad para un bien común
Barra lateral del artículo
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
La Economía Social trasciende el paradigma económico al conciliar la eficiencia con la responsabilidad social. Prioriza la preservación del ciclo de vida de las sociedades, lo que implica equilibrar los intereses de todas las partes implicadas, como se refleja en la aprobación en 2023 de una resolución de las Naciones Unidas que fomenta la Economía Social y Solidaria para el Desarrollo Sostenible. Evaluamos las variables que Portugal ha recopilado para alcanzar este objetivo. A través del tratamiento de datos relevantes de la Cuenta Satélite de la Economía Social, analizamos su sostenibilidad como bien común. Buscamos comprender cómo es posible promover la calidad de vida colectiva a través de este sector. Su contribución al bienestar individual es de gran relevancia. Como inferencia, la Economía Social en Portugal representa una contribución decisiva a la realidad social, redefiniendo el éxito de la equidad. Su impacto es positivo, si bien requiere instrumentos políticos para potenciar su creciente desarrollo en el futuro.
