"Consumer Cooperatives: Building a Better World" – Celebrating the International Year of Cooperatives 2025

Euro Coop Launches Its Campaign “Consumer Cooperatives: Building a Better World” and Extends an Invitation to All Consumer Cooperatives to Share Their Stories and Join the Global Celebration.

The year 2025 holds special significance as the United Nations declares it the International Year of Cooperatives under the theme “Cooperatives Build a Better World”. This global initiative celebrates the vital contributions of cooperatives to sustainability, social justice, and economic resilience.

Euro Coop is proud to participate in this celebration through its campaign, “Consumer Cooperatives: Building a Better World”. The campaign highlights the unique role of consumer cooperatives in advancing these global objectives while demonstrating the strength of collaboration.

Consumer Cooperatives at the Forefront of Change
Consumer cooperatives have long been champions of sustainable development and social progress. They prioritize the well-being of individuals and communities, offering products and services that align with ethical and environmentally friendly principles. By placing people at the heart of their mission, consumer coops provide innovative solutions to pressing challenges while fostering a sense of shared responsibility and inclusiveness.

Euro Coop’s Campaign Vision
Euro Coop’s campaign, “Consumer Cooperatives: Building a Better World”, reflects the core values and principles of the cooperative movement. The initiative is designed to showcase the many ways in which consumer cooperatives across Europe lead by example. Whether through sustainability-focused projects, community engagement, or empowering their members, these cooperatives embody the spirit of collective action and innovation.
