From Japan to Southeast Asia: Success stories and lessons from worker co-operatives

From Japan to Southeast Asia: Success stories and lessons from worker co-operatives

In 2020, Japan made history with the unanimous approval of the Worker Co-operative Act, the first of its kind in the country. Building on this momentum and following the success of our Japan-Europe knowledge-sharing event on worker co-operatives in March 2024, the OECD is partnering again with the Japan Institute for Labour Policy and Training (JILPT) to host another webinar – this time connecting Japan with Southeast Asia. Join us for a dynamic conversation on the future of worker co-operatives in Japan, Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines. Hear from leading practitioners and policymakers who are shaping the co-operative landscape in their respective countries. Learn how new legal frameworks, innovative governance models and grassroots initiatives are driving inclusive, people-centred economic growth. Whether you are a co-operative member, policymaker, researcher or simply curious about new forms of work, this event will offer rich insights and real-world examples you can take back to your own context. Don’t miss this opportunity to connect, learn and be inspired! Visit our website: www.oecd.org/cfe Follow us on Twitter: @OECD_local
