International Year of Cooperatives
This is going to be a good year! On December 18th, 2009, the United Nations General Assembly declared 2012 the Year of Cooperatives, and here we are, already in 2012. Black Star Co-op and other local co-op organizations, especially including the Austin Co-op Think Tank, will be using this opportunity to help educate people on cooperatives and how they meet the needs of the community, while also respecting their employees and the environment.
