Fireside Chat - Forming Cooperatives

The world today is not the same as it was a few years ago. The pandemic, economic dislocation, wealth disparities, social injustices, and uncertainty surround us, and we need new tools. Tradition, history, and current research teach us that cooperatives (member-owned, democratically-run enterprises created to provide benefit for members) are one such tool which can have significant impact in underserved communities.

Come join Pamela Standing, Executive Director of the Minnesota Indigenous Business Alliance, Kandis Quam of the Ancestral Rich Treasures of Zuni Cooperative at Zuni Pueblo, and Sandra McCardell, Coordinating Director of the Cooperative Catalyst of NM for stories of cooperatives in this Fireside Chat.
