The notion of a global cooperative commonwealth, a global order made up of interlinked societies built on cooperative principles, has reverberated across generations, from the writings of the Rochdale pioneers in 1844 to the rise in worker cooperatives throughout the pandemic. What role can platform cooperativism play in moving us closer towards this notion of a global cooperative commonwealth?

What are the specific challenges that the platform model creates for international cooperation among cooperatives? How can these challenges be overcome?
