Think.COOP for refugees and host communities

Think.COOP for refugees and host communities is designed for refugees and host community residents who are interested in joining or starting a cooperative. During this orientation, the participants: (i) learn about the fundamentals of a cooperative business; (ii) understand the conditions under which the cooperative is a better way to doing business; (iii) analyse how social cohesion and trust can help one pursue opportunities to improve one’s livelihood; and (iv) learn how cooperative can contribute to build trust and social cohesion at the community level. At the end of this orientation, the participants will be better able to decide whether the cooperative business model is right for them.
