The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) is excited to join the rest of the nation in celebrating Cooperative Month 2025 this October. This year's focus isn't just about recognition; it's a powerful call to action.

The theme for this year is: “Cooperatives United in Purpose and Action, Sharing Prosperity to Build a Better World.” It’s a message that really gets to the heart of what cooperatives are all about-working together for a bigger, shared goal.

Why This Theme Matters Now

The theme highlights the absolutely vital role that cooperatives play in driving inclusive growth and community empowerment. Think of it this way: cooperatives are businesses owned by their members, which means the success and profits flow right back into the community and to the people who are part of it. This people-centered model is key to making sure that economic progress benefits everyone, not just a few.

The DTI recognizes that co-ops are instrumental in creating jobs, offering essential services, and fostering a spirit of self-help and solidarity in local communities. They are a powerful force for a more fair and stable economy.

Looking Ahead: A Stronger Future

The DTI is calling on everyone to continue supporting and strengthening cooperatives. They are truly seen as key partners in the mission to build a more prosperous and sustainable future for all Filipinos. By acting on this year's theme-being united in purpose and action-the cooperative movement can continue to be a beacon of shared success.

Let's all celebrate the spirit of cooperation and recognize the hard work and dedication of our co-op members throughout the month.
