Survey of potential data-sharing organizations

We are surveying the needs of organizations that maintain lists of their membership or constituency and see a need for collaborative data-sharing. Tilt the future in your favor by taking the survey.

Thanks to all who already did so: NASCO, Cooperative Development Institute, Cooperative Maine, U.S. Federation of Worker Cooperatives, Southwest Cooperative Development Center, Northwest Cooperative Development Center, Food Co-op Initiative, Third Coast Workers for Cooperation, Valley Alliance of Worker Co-operatives, Democracy Collaborative, Canadian Worker Co-op Federation, Common Enterprise Development Corporation, New York City Network of Worker Cooperatives, Madison Worker Cooperatives, Network of Bay Area Worker Cooperatives, Ontario Co-operative Association, Cooperative Development Foundation, Ownership Appalachia, Ohio Employee Ownership Center... We really appreciate it!

About the Data Commons Project


The Data Commons Project, active since 2005, is furthering the work begun by Ethan Miller with the Grassroots Economic Organizing Newsletter in its Economy of Hope publication and the master's thesis work of NoƩmi Giszpenc, to map the cooperative economy in the U.S. It is connecting with similar projects worldwide.
