Fundación Alternativas

Alternativas was born in 1997 with the desire to be a channel for political, social, economic and cultural advocacy and reflection in Spain and Europe, within the framework of growing globalization.
It is a place of meeting, discussion and elaboration of ideas and proposals in which the most dynamic and advanced actors of our society participate. The central objective of the promoters is the analysis and definition of new ideas, addressing the meeting of citizens and the whole of society. In addition, we have the objective of making proposals to political parties and other economic and social actors with the intention that they incorporate them into decision-making.
Our areas of work cover all public policies, both from a national, European and global perspective. These areas find their development in the different departments of the Fundación Alternativas that can be consulted on this website. Thus, the Aalternativas Laboratory appears as the place from which it is intended to promote the development of rigorous proposals on issues that concern citizens. The Foreign Policy Observatory (OPEX)As its name indicates, it is dedicated to the analysis and elaboration of proposals on Spanish foreign policy and its follow-up in the European and global framework. For its part, Estudios de Progreso , is a program aimed at young researchers so that they can contribute new ideas and alternatives to contemporary problems. The Observatory of Culture and Communication (OCC-FA) is established in order to study, analyze and propose initiatives in the culture and communication sectors, both in Spain and the European Union, as well as in Latin America and the Hispanic territories of the United States.
