Coupled with a focus on environmental sustainability and investment in green sector jobs, this innovative strategy for community wealth building has seen deprived areas of the city reinvigorated.</a></label><br><a href="https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/112/659/403/571/118/523/original/ae3c1a083b6ce78c.png" rel="external">https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/112/659/403/571/118/523/original/ae3c1a083b6ce78c.png</a></li><li><label><a rel="external" href="https://gnusocial.jp/attachment/3224457">Ted Howard may be the founder, but this really is a partnership between many organisations and local institutions.The Evergreen Cooperative Initiative was created in 2008 by the Democracy Collaborative, in partnership with the Cleveland Foundation, the Ohio Employee Ownership Center, the City of Cleveland; and the city’s major hospitals and universities are helping to implement a new model of large-scale worker-owned and community-benefiting businesses.The initiative is beginning to build serious momentum in one of the cities most dramatically impacted by the nation’s decaying economy. Local residents earn an ownership stake as they create thriving businesses, while playing a transformational role in building vibrant neighbourhoods.</a></label><br><a href="https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/112/659/403/873/886/378/original/d2b6e2e5d3feec0a.png" rel="external">https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/112/659/403/873/886/378/original/d2b6e2e5d3feec0a.png</a></li><li><label><a rel="external" href="https://gnusocial.jp/attachment/3224458">Examples of workerowned Evergreen Cooperatives include Evergreen Energy Solutions, a single-source contractor for residential or commercial energy-saving needs; Green City Growers,who use a hydroponic greenhouse to produce tasty, nutrientrich, pesticide-free produce yearround; and Evergreen Cooperative Laundry, one of the few commercial laundry operators headquartered in the City of Cleveland serving local hospitals, hotels and other institutions.Based on a philosophy pioneered by huge Spanish co-op Mondragon, The Cleveland Model has gone onto demonstrate how the public sector can work in tandem with cooperative businesses to create place-focused economies for everyone’s benefit. Of course,a decent amount of funding (from philanthropy mostly) helps the lessons in recovery to spread across borders.</a></label><br><a href="https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/112/659/404/227/846/577/original/bd0d05e4b013fb13.png" rel="external">https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/112/659/404/227/846/577/original/bd0d05e4b013fb13.png</a></li><li><article><header><div>Domain not in remote thumbnail source whitelist: atlasofthefuture.org</div><h5><a href="https://atlasofthefuture.org/project/the-cleveland-model/">Cities copy Cleveland's prosperity model | Atlas of the Future</a></h5><div> from <span>Lisa Goldapple</span></div></header><div>One of America’s poorest cities has a radical plan to remake itself. Ohio's 'Cleveland Model' is oh-so simple, but oh-so effective; recognising the unique role cooperatives play in the creation of community wealth. </div><footer></footer></article></li></ol></footer></blockquote>
