The Values of a Co-operative

Co-operative is expected to include the following values in all the work that it undertakes.                                 

Equality

For the democratic functioning of a Co-operative, every member must have an equal chance to participate.

Self-reliance

Co-operative members should not rely on others to get the job done, they should work together to do it themselves.

Self help

Co-operative members should not rely on others to solve their problems, they should work together to find solutions themselves.

Self responsibility

Co-operative members should not allow others to take charge of their business or blame others in the case of obstacles, they themselves are responsible for making their Co-operative work.

Social responsibility

Co-operatives have a duty to help the community in which they live and work.
