Cooperation Vermont was established specifically in this bioregion in preparation for future generations to continue liberation movement work in a world that will look vastly different in the decades to come because of both climate change and a global end stage for the current capitalist framework.
In recognition that we are past too many tipping points and climate catastrophe cannot be averted, we must prepare for what is to come.
MISSION
The mission of Cooperation Vermont is to build economic and environmental democracy.
VISION
By organizing with local communities and existing efforts in the state, Cooperation Vermont is preparing for continued deterioration of economic and environmental conditions and for the inevitability of displaced peoples.
The vision is to shift away from extractive systems of economic development and, through a Just Transition, collectively create self-sufficient, resilient communities with thriving, ecologically sustainable economies.
