Description

"Report 3 - Italy:

(14 mins) Giovanni Rinaldi - In Italy, we’ve started creating new enterprises based on digital platforms that are owned by users and workers who help safeguard digital workers’ rights and share in the profits. Currently, our cooperatives are creating a Cooperative Identity Provider for our 10 million members. This project which help them to recognize that digital identity can in fact be linked to their values. Our next project is a worldwide, shared network of digital data generated by 100 million cooperatives. This would involve creating a large database of interactions between cooperatives and members. We’re also working on A Digital Cooperative Contract that would allow “millennials” to work ethically without setting up a cooperative, by means of a digital contract shared with their employer that provides a set of cooperative rules and principles."
