EUROPEAN INFORMATION NETWORK FOR SOCIAL ECONOMY 
 
ARIES, the European Information network for the Co-operative, Mutual and 
Non-Profit Sectors (also known as the Social Economy), is now available to 
anyone with an Internet address. 
 
ARIES brings information on European news affecting the Social Economy, 
including news about funding opportunities and tenders, seminars and 
conferences, publications etc. You can also use ARIES to look for partners 
for international projects or just to ask for information. 
 
ARIES is a non-profit association registered in Brussels, and set up by the 
European Foundation Centre, the European Citizen s Action Service, and the 
European Committee of Worker Co-operatives. ARIES is supported financially 
by the European Commission Social Economy Unit, but this does not cover all 
costs, and ARIES makes a small charge for subscriptions of 50 ECU 
(equivalent to 42.50 pounds sterling or about 65 US dollars) per year. 
 
The service is aimed to meet the needs of the co-ops, mutual organisations 
and non-profit organisations, as well as people in local and national 
government who work with these kinds of organisations, together with 
academics and other interested individuals. 
 
ARIES is offering a one-month free trial to anyone who requests it. Delivery 
during the free trial is by mailing list. During the trial period, users 
receive all messages posted, but can later select the topics to which he/she 
would like to subscribe. 
 
If you would like to receive ARIES information by being added to this 
mailing list for one month, please send your request by e-mail to: 
 
[log in to unmask]  quoting the e-mail address to which you 
would like to have the information delivered. Alternatively, you can give 
your postal address and we will send you some written information. 
 
Yours,
