ORGANIZACIÓN SOCIAL Y POLÍTICA SOCIAL. EL POTENCIAR TRABAJO Y LOS CUIDADOS COMUNITARIOS

Abstract

The article focuses on the articulation of the National Program for Socio-Productive Inclusion and Local Development Potenciar Trabajo (2020-2023) with socio-community work in popular neighborhoods, and in particular with food policy and the operation of communal kitchens. The article begins with an exposition of the logic and background of the Potenciar Trabajo and its connection with the organizational practices of social movements. The text concludes with some final reflections on the central role played by the grassroots leaders of the organizations and holders of the program in the construction of linking networks and constructions of meaning that provide the necessary internal cohesion to coordinate actions, shape interests and motivations that make it more feasible for a process of activation of solidarity and construction of social power to occur.
