The intercultural solidarity economic circuits (CESI) in Ecuador are spaces for social relations that go beyond the economic. They promote the satisfaction of fundamental needs, the expanded reproduction of work and a harmonious relationship with nature. Its actions are based on the Social and Solidarity Economy (SSE) and are linked to the territory, understood as the result of a «social construction». The research is analytical, it studies the factors that allow the constitution of the CESI with the experience of BioVida, determining that they are the articulation of the actors of the SSE and interculturality.
