Background on the Presentation<br />

This project was created by <strong>Harmony</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Canada</strong> to raise awareness about<br />

cooperatives. Cooperative Enterprises: Building a Healthier, More Sustainable World has a running<br />

time <strong>of</strong> 20 minutes.<br />

The presentation starts with an overview <strong>of</strong> the different structures <strong>of</strong> cooperatives around<br />

the world and the many benefits that distinguish cooperatives from investor owned firms.<br />

The presentation then showcases eight powerful Canadian and international success stories<br />

that will serve as models to those interested in starting their own cooperative, or<br />

contributing to existing ones. By watching the presentation, the audience will be equipping<br />

themselves to spread the message about the positive change that cooperatives can bring to<br />

their local<br />

communities and make a difference in the world.<br />
