Regional Integration: a new opportunity to face the crises
July 2009
The current crisis has its roots in a model of overproduction and over-consumption; promoted by free trade policies and an unsustainable exploitation of natural and energy resources. Regional integration appears as a way to overcome the global economic crisis through the development of solidarity and dynamic intra-regional economic ties.
An international conference of governments and social movements is being convened to advance the debate about the possibilities to respond to the current crisis through regional alternatives based on solidarity and dynamic intra-regional economic ties.
