"Mr President, during this economic and financial crisis Europe is faced with, there is, however, one area which has been affected less by the crisis. I am referring to cooperative societies. Their turnover has increased, they have been affected less by bankruptcies and redundancies, they provide jobs at local and regional level, and one extremely important factor: they cannot be relocated. Cooperatives also offer jobs requiring high qualifications, with women taking a significant number of them. I think that Member States must give greater support to initiatives of this kind, even though there are countries where the cooperative concept has been discredited for historical reasons, and its adoption must be supported by employees from businesses affected by the crisis, precisely to prevent them from being relocated. This is why I support the idea of organising campaigns aimed at informing the European public about the contribution of cooperatives to sustainable economic and social development."@en1
