modèles de gouvernance coopérative

Modèles de gouvernance coopérative refer to the systems and structures that determine how a cooperative organization is managed and decision-making is carried out. In a cooperative, members collectively own and control the organization, typically exercising democratic rights, such as one member one vote. This model emphasizes transparency, shared responsibility, and aligning decisions with members’ interests. Governance practices include elected boards, member meetings, and clear bylaws. The goal is to balance effective management with democratic participation, ensuring that the cooperative operates in accordance with members' values and promotes their economic and social well-being.
