Thematic Areas

ICETT is structured into four working groups that implement ICETT activities. Working groups collaborate and find innovative ways to stimulate cooperative entrepreneurship, based on thematic areas that have a great social, economic and environmental relevance inside and outside the cooperative movement today.

Through its thematic areas, ICETT carries out additional research and organises debates, events, and projects to foster innovative approaches. This demonstrates how cooperatives can leverage their identity to boost their entrepreneurial performance.
