UN International Year of Co-operatives (IYC) 2012 draws attention to the role of co-operatives in economic development, poverty reduction, job creation and building community. The International year will also promote the co-operative alternative to standard business models.
The UN hopes to boost numbers as well as encourage governments to support the formation and growth of co-ops. Its website is a treasure trove of information. 2012.coop/en
The New Internationalist is an independent bi-monthly not-for-profit magazine that reports on action for global justice. We believe in putting people before profit, in climate justice, tax justice, equality, social responsibility and human rights for all.
New Internationalist acknowledges the Traditional Owners of Country throughout Australia and recognises their continuing connection to land, waters and culture. We acknowledge that these lands were stolen and sovereignty was never ceded. We pay our respects to Elders both past and present.
