What is a Co-operative
(co-op): an autonomous association of persons united
voluntarily to meet their common economic, social and cultural
needs and aspirations through a jointly-owned and
democratically-controlled enterprise.
Co-operative Values
Co-operatives are based on the values of self-help, self
responsibility, democracy, equality, equity and solidarity. In
the tradition of their founders, co-operative members believe in
the ethical values of honesty, openness, social responsibility
and caring for others. |
