Experiencias de transición ecosocial en Ecuador desde la economía social solidaria y la agroecología

Based on the analysis of two ecosocial transition initiatives in Ecuador, inscribed in the principles of the Social and Solidarity Economy (SSE) and agroecology, we seek to contribute to the global debate on ecosocial transitions from a Southern perspective. The article discusses the key points for ecosocial transitions to take place in terms of radical alternativity. To this end, we study three dimensions: i) alternative economic relations, ii) food sovereignty, and iii) gender and sustainability of life. We show how these experiences serve to elucidate the localized effects of global capitalism, providing plausible alternatives for systemic transition.
