I was excited to see the ILO publication, and look forward to looking more at it following this post.
ILO R-193 sounds good, though international agreements of this sort are hardly binding, unfortunately. The need for co-op organizing around legal advocacy appears to be a strong necessity. While numerous interest groups face this need, especially employees, low income, and consumers, co-ops would seem to be especially well equipped in some areas, such as Europe and Japan, perhaps even the U.S.
