The spirit of cooperativism was evident during this Covid-19 pandemic as the cooperatives were trying to give all the necessary relief and deploying their resources so that they could provide different kind of assistance and selfless service for the needy and vulnerable people of their communities.

thru Volunteerism
CDA Dagupan Extension Office

2. With the spread of the COVID-19 and its
economic and social impacts, the world is facing
a time of unprecedented uncertainty. It is a time
when things that were previously unimaginable
are now a reality. The mandatory shutdowns of
non-essential businesses and the confinement
of billions of people to their homes, are
revamping societies and economies. The impact
is unevenly distributed for households, workers
and businesses, further exacerbating
inequalities that already exist. Cooperative and
other SSE enterprises, such as mutuals,
associations, foundations and social enterprises,
their workers and communities are also being
impacted, albeit asymmetrically depending on
the sectors and the stage of the spread of the
virus in their region or country .

During periods of crises, the
values of cooperation, solidarity,
and mutualism experience an
increase in popularity. In the
context of the devastating effects of
the COVID-19 pandemic,
cooperatives around the world are
mobilizing to provide relief for their
workers, members, and
communities. Local and national
governments are starting to
integrate cooperatives into public
relief strategies in some countries
as partners and beneficiaries.

4. Cooperatives in the region are actively involved
and supportive of the efforts of the Government to
prevent the spread of the unseen enemy-COVID19
and are directly involved in giving assistance in their
own communities. The depth of their involvement is
truly reflective of the 7th Cooperative Principle -
“Concern for Community”. They exemplify what the
cooperatives stand for as a social enterprise.

5. The spirit of cooperativism was evident during this
Covid-19 pandemic as the cooperatives were trying to
give all the necessary relief that they could provide to
ease the burden of the community. They provided
different kind of assistance and rendered selfless service
for the continuous operation in compliance to the
government protocols on precautionary measures.

6. The CDA DEO is documenting the
volunteerism activities of cooperatives to
recognize their efforts as partner of the
government in the fight against COVID-19).
