Abstract

Cooperative integration started by considering the importance that an orderly and integrated work scheme had within each cooperative. The development of a business profile for Cooperativism gives rise to changes in the way it is operated, and new ways of performing productive work are integrated such as economic integration using new trends known as entrepreneurship, linkages, financial and business networks. New cooperative groups are made visible to offer them opportunities for social and cooperative development, which are represented by young male and female cooperative members. A number of programmes have been regionally implemented in Central America, either through the Cooperative Confederation of Central America, the Caribbean and South America, or by non-cooperative entities within Social Economy.
