The cooperative sector in India plays a pivotal role in employment, poverty alleviation, and food security. It covers 100% of India's geographical area and was started 115 years ago to address agricultural debt issues. It has since expanded into many sectors. However, it faces challenges like a lack of democratic spirit, government interference, and outdated practices. It also faces opportunities through organizing new types of cooperatives, vertical and horizontal integration, and joint ventures. Cooperatives continue to be accepted due to their business model combined with social goals.

This document discusses challenges to collective commercialization by smallholder producer organizations (SPOs) in Africa based on a study of SPOs in Senegal, Ethiopia, and Malawi. The main challenges identified are members' unwillingness to wait for payment for products, lack of trust in SPOs' ability to facilitate sales, and side-selling by members. A second set of challenges is lack of investment in collective assets, pointing to a lack of "collective entrepreneurship" among members. The document concludes that SPOs which allocate equity shares to members and encourage investment can be more successful in facilitating collective action and commercialization compared to traditional, defensive SPOs.

William Maddocks_How Can Microfinance Programs Help the Struggle Against Soci...Microcredit Summit Campaign
This document discusses how microfinance programs can help address social problems through building social capital and networks. It provides examples of microfinance programs that have helped reduce begging in Bangladesh by moving beggars to marketplace work. It also discusses how microfinance groups in Uganda have empowered the disabled, with one blind woman elected as city councilor. The document advocates for an integrated approach using microfinance to create health solutions through partnerships while targeting the ultra-poor.There is no "I" in TEAM - Simandla
The document discusses strategies for empowering communities through self-help groups (SHGs). It explains that SHGs organize women into savings groups to build economic self-reliance and decision making power. SHGs are clustered into higher levels to take on larger issues. Partners reported that SHGs improved food security, education, health and social cohesion for thousands of households in South Africa. Challenges included high turnover of community facilitators and limited funding, which partners are working to address.

Social Entrepreneurship-Iran
The document defines social enterprises as businesses with social objectives that reinvest their profits back into the community rather than maximizing profits. It discusses the challenges social enterprises face like a lack of business experience in NGOs and limited financing. Success factors include entrepreneurial spirit, public recognition, and government support. Potential benefits are job creation, increasing employability, meeting community needs, and strengthening networks. The document advocates for universities to provide training, businesses to offer expertise and funding, and governments to establish supportive legislation and seed funding to foster social entrepreneurship.

Report Civil Society Panel 2017 - CIVIL SOCIETY PANEL ANNUAL MEETINGS 2017
More than ever before, the leadership of the African Development Bank (AfDB) is firmly convinced that its ambitious goals-the High 5s-cannot be achieved without the active engagement, advice and participation of civil society organizations (CSOs). Indeed, the Bank recognizes that Africa’s civil society is at the heart of vibrant, dynamic and accountable societies.
Through civil society organizations citizens come together to express their concerns, offer their opinions, hold their leaders accountable and address challenges that governments alone cannot tackle. The comparative advantage of civil society organizations is undeniable; their technical and technological know-how; geographic proximity; and cultural sensitivity
are all factors that make CSOs appropriate and cost-effective partners for delivering on the High 5s.
Partnering with CSOs is particularly crucial in agriculture, where majority of Africans, especially the poor, continue to toil. The Bank’s strategy on agriculture is clear on this: “…the Strategy will execute the Comprehensive African Agriculture Development Program (CAADP) goals of contributing to elimination of extreme hunger, malnutrition, poverty, and increased prosperity-in partnership with alliances including farmers, agribusiness, and civil society…”

Abcd Global Sustainable Development
This document discusses shifting approaches to international development in sub-Saharan Africa, from focusing on needs and deficiencies to emphasizing strengths and assets. It argues for using an asset-based approach that maps community capacities and looks inside communities to solve problems, rather than having outsiders impose help. An example asset map of pastoral communities in Kenya shows individual and collective skills, physical and economic resources, institutions, and stories that can form the basis for locally-led development. The document advocates combining sustainable livelihoods, participatory, rights-based and asset-based frameworks to support citizens in addressing their own needs.
The farmers development in credit structure vis à-vis indian
This document discusses the credit structure for farmers and the Indian economy. It outlines several formal and informal sources of rural credit, including self-help groups, National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (NABARD), and microfinance institutions. NABARD was established to regulate cooperative banks and regional rural banks to increase credit flow to rural areas. While self-help groups are village-based organizations that provide small loans to members, microfinance institutions give loans to small businesses and entrepreneurs lacking access to traditional banks. The document concludes with suggestions to increase credit availability and reduce risks such as contract farming and involving NGOs to organize loan disbursement.
Sustainable Economic Development Initiative Overview
In 2004, sustainability and technology industries were identified as critical to Arizona's future. A 2006 summit in northern Arizona brought together over 150 stakeholders from 70 organizations to discuss establishing a regional organization called SEDI to advance sustainable economic development. SEDI's goals are to achieve awareness and support for sustainable development, become a recognized center for sustainability policy and practice, establish a supportive regulatory environment, and integrate sustainability into business, education, and workforce development.

Women Economic Forum - 2016
This document discusses various aspects of corporate governance and women's participation in business in India. It defines corporate governance as the system by which companies are directed and controlled, with the four main pillars being accountability, fairness, transparency, and responsibility. It outlines how economic reforms in India transformed businesses and industries. While women's empowerment and representation in local governance has increased, their participation remains limited due to factors like lower literacy, patriarchal attitudes, lack of awareness of rights, and asymmetric power relations that perpetuate the exploitation of marginalized groups including rural women. The document also discusses the roles women can potentially excel at in corporate boards and businesses if given more opportunities and support.
Social Business Models for Growth
The development of a viable and sustainable social enterprise (SE) sector can be a powerful driver of economic progress. But the development of an ecosystem conducive to social enterprise requires a shift in the approach for both business and development aims among governments and the societies they manage. Addition of low-cost policy mechanisms can go a long way towards addressing improved development needs through use of SEs. This paper considers how governments can define SEs as for-profit entities in which most of the profits are reinvested, and examines the positive role of government in the growth of SEs. The paper considers the existing literature and research in examining the cases of India, Iran, and Egypt as the basis for developing policy recommendations that can be applied globally. These recommendations include the development of effective legal and regulatory frameworks, incentives for SEs, training and awareness, and financing.

Genuine participation
The document discusses problems facing typical Filipino communities, including poverty, poor living conditions, unemployment, low education levels, and more. It emphasizes the importance of genuine citizen participation and involvement in decision making, implementation, and evaluation of development programs. Key elements of successful community organization and development include leadership, teamwork, transparency, and addressing felt community needs.
Diminishing Entreprenuership
This document discusses the diminishing entrepreneurial spirit among the Kutchi community in India. It analyzes research on factors that discourage the present generation from continuing family businesses. The study uses surveys and interviews to identify the top factors, such as parents' attitudes, small business size, and education irrelevant to the family business. It finds that a preference for corporate culture over family businesses and a lack of professionalism and innovation also contribute. The conclusion recommends promoting family business education and policies to support small businesses and make them attractive for future generations.
Women entrepreneurship
Women entrepreneur may be defined as a woman or group of women who initiate, organize, and run a business enterprise. In terms of Schumpeter concept of innovative entrepreneurs, women who innovate, imitate or adopt a business activity are called “Women Entrepreneurs”.
Tackling Global Challenges - Lessons in System Leadership
This document summarizes a report on lessons in system leadership from the World Economic Forum's New Vision for Agriculture initiative. It begins with an introduction explaining the need for system leadership to tackle complex global challenges. It then provides an overview of the New Vision for Agriculture story and its goals of transforming agriculture. The main part of the document distills three key lessons in system leadership from the initiative: cultivating a shared vision for change, empowering widespread innovation and action, and enabling mutual accountability. It concludes by discussing the importance of mainstreaming system leadership approaches.
Gender and Global Value Chain
Global value chains (GVCs) provide significant female employment opportunities. However, women predominantly work in lower tiers of GVCs and face highly unequal and exploitative conditions. They are concentrated in informal, casual jobs with no benefits and face occupational segregation, gender-based discrimination, and lack of career progression. Addressing these challenges through ensuring equal access to skills, resources, technology, and promoting women's empowerment and representation can help maximize the benefits of GVC participation for women.

Everyday_Inclusion_A4_FINAL_LOW_RES
The document discusses creating an inclusive ecosystem to accelerate changes that promote gender diversity in organizations. It provides case studies of 6 organizations that have implemented integrated strategies promoting inclusion and diversity. These cases demonstrate common themes of clear goals, visible leadership, evidence-based initiatives, and broad engagement. The document advocates a holistic approach addressing both formal policies and informal culture. It discusses defining inclusion and the need for both internal changes and external outreach. Research suggests open cultures most improve gender diversity and submissions to the document reinforce strategies like leadership commitment, unconscious bias training, work-life balance, and sponsorship programs.
Powerpoint assignment by Florida Sikwese
The document discusses ADMARC, a Malawian government organization established to promote agriculture. It details ADMARC's history and challenges over time. Key issues included political interference, mismanagement of funds, and inefficiency. ADMARC underwent a failed downsizing attempt driven by donors without properly assessing internal/external factors. This led to resistance and failure to define new roles. The downsizing focused only on financials and excluded other important social and economic functions of ADMARC. Lack of communication and stakeholder buy-in also contributed to the failed change effort.

Women Entrepreneurship & Boardroom Diversity.pptx
This document discusses women's entrepreneurship and boardroom diversity in India. It notes that while women-owned enterprises have grown significantly, comprising 20% of all enterprises, they remain overwhelmingly small single-person operations. Fostering women's entrepreneurship could boost India's economic growth and has social benefits. Key barriers women entrepreneurs face include limited access to skills, networks, and financing. The document calls for focused skill development, integrated policy support, improved access to financing and markets, and creating more role models to help unlock women's potential as entrepreneurs. Regarding boardroom diversity, gender quotas have increased the number of women directors but they are often excluded from influential board committees, limiting actual governance reforms. The document stresses the importance of both
Solutions for gender concerns

It notes that globally, women lag behind men in many areas such as health, education, political participation, and pay. Gender inequality remains a problem worldwide that impacts development. The document proposes several solutions, including supporting organizations for home workers, ensuring basic employment rights, establishing childcare facilities, increasing access to education and credit for women, and promoting gender mainstreaming in government policies. It also discusses the importance of women's participation in decision making and the UN's focus on issues like poverty, women's access to resources, and health.
