Grassroots Economic Organizing<p>:TwinPines: "In 2017 the union set up Top Manta, a co-op that sells clothes, accessories and sportswear made by migrants. In doing so, it aims to improve the living conditions of the vendors and take them off the streets. Getting started was difficult, particularly due to the lack of access to capital but the co-op was able to raise €77,000 to launch its clothing brand through a crowdfunding campaign."<br><a href="https://social.coop/tags/Cooperatives" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Cooperatives</span></a></p><p><a href="https://www.thenews.coop/how-top-manta-co-op-helps-barcelonas-street-vendors-formalise/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">thenews.coop/how-top-manta-co-</span><span class="invisible">op-helps-barcelonas-street-vendors-formalise/</span></a></p>

cos<p>Turning off a memory today; we shut down the server a few hours ago as part of saying farewell to the Tau Ceti co-operative, which provided affordable web-hosting and email to hundreds of punters for twenty-something years. We hosted various famous and not-so-famous sites through those years, and moved our server through various Melbourne data centres - sometimes at almost no notice! I made some fabulous friends through helping out, but I can’t deny my shoulders feel a little lighter now that it’s over. </p><p>My lessons from this experience are these:</p><p>- there’ll be no shortage of people with opinions about what you should do, but look for the ones who’ll pitch in to help<br>- it’s ok for responsibilities to shift over time - indeed, it’s better if they do<br>- you don’t have to serve everyone - sometimes it’s far more helpful to help people move on if they’ve outgrown your co-op’s mission</p><p><a href="https://robsnarski.bandcamp.com/track/turning-off-a-memory-merle-haggard" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">robsnarski.bandcamp.com/track/</span><span class="invisible">turning-off-a-memory-merle-haggard</span></a></p><p><a href="https://aus.social/tags/SelfHosting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SelfHosting</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/CoOperatives" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CoOperatives</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/hosting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hosting</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/community" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>community</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/memories" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>memories</span></a></p>

Matt Noyes<p>Great moment this morning: taking turns reading aloud from <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://social.coop/@luisrazeto" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>luisrazeto</span></a></span> and discussing standard and solidarity sources of external financing for cooperatives. So great to be in this learning/organizing process with a dozen people over nearly two years. <a href="https://social.coop/tags/cooperatives" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cooperatives</span></a> <a href="https://social.coop/tags/cooperative_education" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cooperative_education</span></a> <a href="https://social.coop/tags/solidarity_economy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>solidarity_economy</span></a></p>
