International Day of Cooperatives 2023 on 1st July

29 June 2023

Under the theme “Cooperatives for Sustainable Development,” cooperators from around the world are invited to celebrate on 1st July the International Day of Cooperatives and showcase how the cooperative movement is working towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

This annual celebration recognizes the significant contribution of cooperatives to the global economy and their role in building a more sustainable future.

This year’s celebration will mark the 29th International Day of Cooperatives recognized by the United Nations and the 101st International Day of Cooperatives, also known as #CoopsDay.

#CoopsDay in detail The goal of #CoopsDay is to raise awareness about cooperatives and promote the ideas of the international solidarity movement, economic efficiency, equality, and peace in the world. Since 1995, the International Cooperative Alliance (ICA) and the United Nations, through the Committee for the Promotion and Advancement of Cooperatives (COPAC), have jointly set the theme for the #CoopsDay celebration.

Through #CoopsDay, local, national, and global policymakers, civil society organizations, and the general public can learn about the contribution of cooperatives to a just future for all.
