ICA President Ariel Guarco to the ILO on the Global Coalition for Social Justice

Dear ILO friends, it is a great joy for us to be part of the Global Coalition for Social Justice.
Cooperatives are enterprises formed and controlled by workers, users, consumers, producers.
Social justice is an intrinsic element of our form of socio-entrepreneurial management.
And we are today a model that leads directly to a sustainable and peaceful future on a global scale.
This is being recognised worldwide and is embodied in the United Nations declaration of 2025 as the International Year of Cooperatives.
I take this opportunity to invite you to the launch of this milestone on 25-30 November in New Delhi, India.
Thank you very much to the ILO, to its Director-General and we redouble our commitment for a world with social justice.
