Cooperatives and Social Economy

This is CNRI’s intellectual heart — member-owned institutions, governance reform and the Cooperative Economic Framework (CEF). Locally, member NGOs strengthen the governance and viability of primary cooperatives; nationally, CNRI is a natural partner to the Sahkar Se Samriddhi agenda; globally, WCOOPEF gives cooperative economics a world platform benchmarked against the WEF and COP models. Cooperation is heritage, unity and self-reliance in one institution — three Prans embodied.
