Hawaiʻi Co-op Hui

Collaboration

Ways to learn and work together — readings, listening, and recordings from the cohort. More to come.

Readings & listening

What is a Worker Cooperative?

A short, clear explainer on the two things that define a worker co-op: the workers own it, and they run it on a one-worker-one-vote basis.

New Economy Coalition

The Solidarity Economy

The bigger picture: an economy where food, housing, credit, energy, and culture are owned and governed by everyday people. Co-ops are one of its building blocks.

Worker Cooperatives Pt. 1 – Widening Spheres of Democracy

An audio documentary, about an hour long, on the growth of worker co-ops since 2008 and what makes them different — told through a co-op bike and skate shop in Richmond, California that doubles as a community hub, and a look at what a strong co-op ecosystem looks like.
