MANCHESTER. Inglaterra, 1 de novembro de 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Para marcar o Ano Internacional de Cooperativas 2012 das Nações Unidas, o movimento internacional de cooperativas lançou hoje (1 de novembro) uma nova iniciativa projetada para fornecer a ajuda financeira tão necessária às cooperativas dos países em desenvolvimento.

A GDC (Global Development Cooperative, Cooperativa de desenvolvimento global) tem como objetivo ajudar empresas cooperativas de países em desenvolvimento, levantando US$ 50 milhões a fim de fornecer acesso a empréstimos de baixo custo para projetos de infraestrutura e capital. O projeto visará os investidores interessados no desenvolvimento internacional e no aumento do alcance e benefícios do modelo cooperativo.  

A GDC foi anunciada em uma cerimônia especial em Nova York, na noite anterior, para líderes de muitas das 300 maiores cooperativas do mundo, organizada pela Aliança Cooperativa Internacional (ICA), que representa o movimento globalmente. Foi a primeira vez que estes líderes se reuniram e marcaram o lançamento do Ano Internacional pela ONU.  

O Ano reconhece o papel que o modelo de empresa cooperativa tem feito na melhoria do desenvolvimento econômico e social em comunidades de todo o mundo por meio da criação e do suporte a empregos, reduzindo a pobreza.  

Contudo, o financiamento para essas empresas frequentemente é escasso, porque os mutuantes tradicionais não estão ativos nesse mercado, não entendem suficientemente o modelo de empresa cooperativa ou porque as empresas possuem garantia limitada a apresentar.

O novo conceito de investimento foi desenvolvido pelo The Co-operative Bank do Reino Unido, parte da maior cooperativa de consumidores do mundo, e pela ICA.

Entre os que se comprometeram a apoiar a iniciativa, estão a All China Federation of Supply and Marketing Cooperatives, Credit Cooperatif da França e IFFCO da Índia.  Mid-Counties Co-operative bem como o The Co-operative Bank do Reino Unido também prometeram apoio.  

Paul Flowers, presidente da GDC*, disse: "Em oposição a um cenário de crise financeira agravada pela ganância e especulação, o modelo cooperativo provou ser um dos modos mais duradouros e bem sucedidos de gerir uma empresa nos últimos 150 anos.

"Apesar dos tempos de crise econômica, os membros cooperativos de todo o mundo desejam que o movimento mantenha apoio para o desenvolvimento internacional. É importante que usemos nossa influência para apoiar comunidades em todos os países em desenvolvimento."

Dame Pauline Green, presidente da ICA, disse: "Esta iniciativa é um exemplo claro de um dos princípios fundadores do movimento: ajuda mútua entre as cooperativas.

"Ela garantirá que um legado positivo e duradouro continue a partir do Ano Internacional, ajudando milhares de co-operadores dos países em desenvolvimento. A iniciativa também continuará nossos esforços para desenvolver empresas sustentáveis de propriedade de membros, e para inserir sociedade civil no mundo inteiro.

"Pedimos que aqueles que tenham interesse em promover o desenvolvimento econômico e social de países em desenvolvimento ajudem a GDC."

O Ano Internacional de Cooperativas visa aumentar a consciência sobre as cooperativas e procura alavancar sua contribuição com o desenvolvimento socioeconômico e promover mais marcos regulatórios de apoio.

Estima-se que este setor tenha cerca de 800 milhões de membros em mais de 100 países e gere mais de 100 milhões de empregos no mundo inteiro.
