Identity

G2C stands for “La Générale des Coopératives du Cameroun”. It is a platform born from the Cameroonian cooperative dynamic that brings together and supports the country's cooperatives.

No. G2C is an apolitical and non-profit association based on the principles of the Social and Solidarity Economy (ESS). It is a platform that brings together and accompanies Cameroonian cooperatives, without formal federative status to date.

Gather and accompany Cameroon's cooperative potential to create a viable and reliable cooperative movement.

Build a viable and reliable cooperative movement, where human dignity prevails over capital, and where economic growth is at the service of society and the sustainable development of the territories.

Legal framework
