\"Cooperatives are an excellent organisational model to bring real change to women workers. At SEWA Federation, we have been helping women build these cooperatives for many years, and it was great to bring this knowledge to the GYF. Governing a cooperative can be challenging, and my session focussed on bringing these tools to young people as they find their way into the movement.\"
