This guidebook is part of the iCareCoops toolkits created to promote the growth of care cooperatives in Europe. It goes together with a set of evolving complementary material, from different sources, among which samples of best practices identified across Europe.
It is the aim of the present guidebook to make it as easy as possible for you to start your own cooperative. It is especially addressed to individuals and local organisations seeking to develop innovative, viable and community-based elderly care models on their territory. It aims at providing these actors with practical guidelines and resources which may be helpful in the founding process of a cooperative – with a special focus on the multi-stakeholder care cooperative model.
iCareCoops provides a sustainable, ICT-driven solution to our ageing society's increasing need for care. The project aims to develop a new way of promoting and supporting elderly care cooperatives as a model to organise elderly care in an efficient way.
