B4Coop methodology
How CEMSD connects to this work
CEMSD treats people not only as consumers or aid recipients, but also as owners, users, investors, and decision-makers within markets. It strengthens cooperative enterprises and the surrounding market system so recovery can be inclusive, commercially viable, and locally sustained.
