Ecoapp: Proposta de um sistema de moeda social oriunda da reciclagem em Caçapava do Sul/RS

Abstract

This research aims to deliver a system of exchanges based upon the solidary economies and social currencies, built from technologies for mobile applications, which we call "Ecoapp". This application will be responsible for managing daily transactions of goods and services, through its digital social currency, which will have by coverage the volume of recycled material destined to the Recycling Association of Caçapava do Sul - RS. With this system, we hope to promote environmental awareness through daily practices, which will take advantage of the productive forces of its participants. This application presents itself, through its basic premises, as a popular tool capable of giving voice to the excluded periphery, handing them a type of participatory democracy not common in our times.
