Today, the Student Recreation Centre (Casa del Alumno) of the Universitat Politècnica de València hosted the Hackathon on Cooperativism and Rural Development, a full-day event aimed at fostering innovative ideas for sustainable rural development through cooperative models.
The initiative, organized by the Confederació de Cooperatives de la Comunitat Valenciana (Concoval) and the UPV, with the collaboration of the Master’s in Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability (RSC), the Business Management Research Centre (CEGEA) and ETSIAMN, is part of the International Year of Cooperatives.
Throughout the day, participating teams worked on proposals aligned with the Fent Cooperatives 2025-2026 plan, addressing key challenges such as ecological transition, circular economy, and rural depopulation.
Today, the activity “From reflection to action: towards sustainable fashion” was held at the Student Center.
The transition from reflection to action in sustainable fashion involves adopting conscious consumption habits, choosing ethical brands, and prioritizing quality over quantity to minimize environmental and social impact.

A heartfelt remembrance for those who are no longer with us, and a call to collective memory to ensure we never forget.
