Getting Involved: studies of member participation in co-operatives across the West Midlands
Author: Mervyn Wilson, Tom Woodin, Richard Simmons and Johnston Birchall
Category: Member Participation
Pages: 40
Description:
These two papers are based on an action research project in the West Midlands. A number of consumer and housing co-operatives took part, looking into ways of recruiting and developing active members. The research looks at practical ideas for member participation, with a second strand using interviews with members to look at what motivates co-operative members to participate.
