“Along with the private sector and the civil society, the cooperatives have a big role to play. In Africa and other underdeveloped and developing nations, the value chain is perhaps not democratic, and that is the reason why it is not politically acceptable, and perhaps not giving due care to the civil society and people. The situation in India is different. We have a huge cooperative network and there are changes taking place. Maybe we can have a discussion on these aspects and create the cooperative at the center of all developmental aspects, so that the social and solidarity economy will take a place, and the financing for sustainable development can take a big shape,” Anand said. 

During his address, Mr. Anand also expressed hope that cooperatives can create in situ employmentopportunities. It can address the trust deficit; it can address the kind of peace that is required at a time when half of the globe is going for the election this year and the next year. In a side event organized by FAO further he dwelt upon the solutions and the Indian Model of Creating three New Multistate cooperative on Natural farming, Seeds and Export. He gave a call to document these efforts and to create a white paper for United Nation FFD4 2025 meeting in Spain. 

“As Europe is contemplating a financing mechanism for sustainable development, we must think about the cooperative, we must think about the cooperative organizations, and we must think about how to create a cooperative economic zone, not nationally but globally,” he further  emphasized.
