INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
In 1895, the International Co-operative Alliance formed to serve as a way to unite cooperatives across the world
Some colleges have student-run housing co-ops where cleaning, food preparation and other responsibilities are shared
Today, there are many well-known large-scale co-ops, including outdoor recreation store REI, Arizmendi Bakery in San Francisco and Blue
Start.coop, an accelerator for cooperative startups, is just one group trying to facilitate that practice.
