Socio-Economic Impact of Co-operatives and Mutuals

Almost 300 hundred years ago, facing major poverty, exclusion and inequalities, men and women created a new way to meet their needs: co-operatives and mutuals (CM). The model, inspired by values of equality, democracy, freedom, equity, solidarity and empowerment, has evolved in its practice and theory, and has had significant impacts on development.
