“…The existence of cooperatives in schools, colleges and universities is a unique model for the Asia Pacific region. The existence of multi-service cooperatives on campuses, educational institutions with students, teachers and staff as members will lead to a cooperative spirit (Dongre et al, 2020) The main social capital of cooperatives is mutual assistance, empathy, and mutual cooperation. Cooperatives are a collection of people not a collection of capital or money.…”

Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are international programs that must be supported by other countries, especially developing countries such as Indonesia. The SDGs contain 18 goals and 169 targets that are expected to be achieved by 2030. There are 4 goals that can be directly implemented by women, namely without poverty, without hunger, a healthy and prosperous life, and gender equality. The purpose of this study is to map the extent of the role of the Women's Cooperative as an institution for empowering women in order to achieve a family without poverty, without hunger, in health and prosperity and gender mainstreaming in supporting the achievement of the SDGs by 2030. Women's cooperative (Women’s Co-op) is a group of women who have the same goal. The study was conducted using a descriptive method, with a literature study approach. The results of the study indicate that the empowerment of women's cooperative members that has been carried out by 5 (five) Women's Co-ops, shows progress in entrepreneurship skills, social progress, increased income and the same opportunity. Therefore, to support the SDGs more quickly, it is necessary to develop a model of coaching and training for members of women's cooperatives as well as a model of fostering secondary women's cooperatives for primary women's cooperatives so that poverty, hunger, welfare and gender mainstreaming are evenly distributed throughout Indonesia.

The study explores the issue of youth participation in cooperative organisations, which are organisational arrangements characterised by a participatory governance model with sustainability values and principles in their DNA. We argue that an influential driver of participation in this setting is the conceptual–philosophical basis of cooperation that shapes a value‐based identity. We surveyed the attitudes and values of young people working in cooperative settings. We tested the hypotheses that youth participation is driven by self‐identification with cooperatives' values and a mentality oriented towards economic benefits. Using the lenses of identity theories, we contribute to the currently scant literature on this topic by identifying possible roots of a drift from cooperative missions in the attitudes that youth show in a decision‐making context. Our findings support the need to leverage combinations of multiple identities to retrieve benefits in governing cooperatives and educate young generations toward sustainable governance.
