The project title is:
Looking Back – Looking Forward: The economic and social contribution of the Western Australian Co-operative and Mutual Enterprise (CME) sector to the state’s development
The UWA team will examine the economic and social contribution the CME sector has made in WA, through the lens of selected organisations that represent a cross-section of the State’s industries.
The project will provide a significant foundation of data upon which to develop industry and policy advice for industry representative bodies such as Co-operatives WA.
