Sustainability, in a triple perspective of territorial social cohesion, heritage and social tourism, is intrinsic to the concerns of both CIRIEC international and its national delegations, as well as INATEL Foundation.

As part of the celebrations of the 40th anniversary of the CEEPS - Center for the Study of the Public and Social Economy (CIRIEC - Portugal), in a joint effort with INATEL Foundation, the X Iberian Colloquia on Social Economy of CIRIEC and the I International Colloquia of Social Economy of the INATEL Foundation will be held on November 18th and 19th of 2019, with the generic theme of Territory, Heritage and Social Tourism Sustainability and the following subthemes: Sustainability and Social Economy; Heritage and Social Economy; Social Tourism; and 2030 Agenda and Social Economy.

The colloquia will have a day of conferences, for the participation of experts in these specific topics, and another day of parallel sessions, open to the presentations of those who want to contribute to broaden the debate and deepen the knowledge on the matters under consideration.

The parallel sessions that will take place on the 19th are intended to mobilize people interested in the theme of the event, who wish to submit an abstract of their papers for consideration by a jury.

Although the general approach to the subject can be very diverse, papers should focus on the role that Social Economy entities play or may play in the search for new paths of sustainable development geared towards territorial cohesion.

The papers presented, original and unpublished that do not appear in minutes of congresses, may be submitted to the following publications, taking into account the requirements of the respective web pages.
