Mind our business: Amplify the transformative power of sustainable and inclusive business models through EU external action

Cooperatives Europe

“Mind our business: Amplify the transformative power of sustainable and inclusive business models through EU external action” is a joint report by Cooperatives Europe, Fair Trade Advocacy Office and CONCORD. The report stresses the added value of sustainable and inclusive business models (SIBMs) as drivers of sustainable economic, environmental and social development in contrast to conventional businesses. It also argues that the EU and its Member States could more effectively support SIBMs across the globe through development cooperation, investments, trade and economic diplomacy by taking the diversity of the private sector into account and incorporating measures to promote SIBMs in their private sector support.
