Cooperatives and Mutuals, with Chiyoge Sifa

Описание: In this episode, Chiyoge Sifa, the Regional Director of the International Cooperative Alliance–Africa, shares how she witnessed first-hand the way the actualization of the principles and values of the Social and Solidarity Economy (SSE) such as equity, solidarity and participatory governance help improve the lives of those around her. She explains her conviction that SSE is intrinsic to humanity, cutting across many cultures in different regions around the world and stemming from the roots and origins of the way we work. She envisions the future potential of cooperatives and the SSE movement on the continent of Africa as paramount to the achievement of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals by 2030.
