   @coopartisans Little reminder: These principles have actually evolved quite a bit from the 1844 version. And also important to remember that cooperativism didn't start in England in 1844 but arises through many diverse traditions and lifeways. I love this resource: 9.50 7.00 8.00 8.50 1.00 0.75

     These are the 7 Cooperative Principles that form the blueprint for a cooperative, and were created by The Rochedale Pioneers in 1844:

     1. Voluntary and Open Membership
     2. Democratic Member Control
     3. Members’ Economic Participation
     4. Autonomy and Independence
     5. Education, Training, and Information
     6. Cooperation Among Cooperatives
     7. Concern for Community
