Use internal targets and link to them:

[[info:org#Internal%20links][info:org#Internal links]]

Basically, the following should work:
#+begin_src org
  ,* test
  <<section-test>>
  Some introductory text
  ,* more stuff
  In this section, we summarise what we saw in [[section-test]].
#+end_src

HTH,
