Sumario:A just socio-ecological transition demands a transformation of the care system that ensures the sustainability of human life. This process entails recognizing and revaluing unpaid care work, as well as improving working conditions in this field, which is characterized by the predominant contribution of women, including many immigrants, within global care chains. This study analyzes the possibilities and limits of the social and solidarity economy in this transformation. Framed by the perspective of multilevel change and employing a methodology that combines an innovative collaborative workshop with 54 stakeholders in the Spanish context with interviews with care cooperative leaders in Honduras, Uruguay, and Spain, transformative strategies are revealed to revalue these essential services and confront their structural challenges.
