Money Grows on Trees: Youth organisations setting up cooperatives
This toolkit is a practical guide as it provides a theoretical background to business, more specifically, of course, cooperatives. It is also a political tool as it urges youth organisa- tions to rethink their fundraising strategies, to encourage them to reposition themselves within a changing environment and to encourage them to start looking at business as a way to promote their mission and advance their work. The content of this toolkit is based on various online resources and professional experiences of our experts and partners. These resources – and more – are referenced at the end of this toolkit.
