Platform Cooperative Consortium

The Platform Cooperative Consortium is a network of organizations and individuals working to promote cooperatives that operate online platforms, like ride-sharing or food delivery services. In these cooperatives, the workers and users jointly own and govern the platform, ensuring fairness and equitable profits rather than prioritizing shareholders. This model aims to address issues like worker exploitation and data privacy by empowering communities to take control of digital services. The consortium provides resources, support, and advocacy for these cooperative efforts, fostering a more democratic and sustainable economy in the digital age.
