Can solidarity be financial? With Louise Le Coz from les Cigales we talked about how citizens can tackle local problems using their savings and the social and solidarity based economy in France in general. She also told us about the value of human connections and the power of cooperation. This is a podcast of SALTO European Solidarity Corps Resource Centre,  produced by Instituto NOW (institutonow.org). For more information and  resources on Solidarity and the Corps, go to talkingsolidarity.eu.  The  theme song “Solidarity Unifies Us” is composed and sung by Paula  Gehrs.  The episode was mixed by Bruno Freire and hosted by Diogo Pires.  The  artwork was created by Ina Gouveia.
