Co-operators around the world will celebrate the global movement on 1 July – and this year the theme is “Inclusion”.
“Co-operatives ensure no one is left behind”, is the slogan of the 2017 International Day of Co-operatives.
Inclusion is a reflection of the people-focused nature of co-ops, and is also intrinsic to the movement’s principles of voluntary and open membership, democratic member control and member economic participation. Co-operatives provide a space where all people, regardless of race, gender, culture, social background or economic circumstance, can meet their needs and build better communities.
