The Mundukide Foundation was created in 1999 as a result of a process of reflection carried out both within the Mondragón Co-operative Movement and MONDRAGON Corporation itself, with the aim of updating and revitalising the principles of solidarity upon which Co-operativism rests:
Inter-cooperation: Involvement in the search for potential synergies derived from the common environment.
Social transformation: Through the majority pooling of profits, the creation of new co-operative jobs and support for community development initiatives.
Universality: Solidarity with all those working in favour of social democracy, sharing the objectives of peace, justice and development.
A number of local non-governmental organisations which work with the Developing World also participated in this process of reflection, reaching the unanimous conclusion that the Mondragón Co-operative Experience could become a valid point of reference for Inter-Cooperation Projects.
In order to adapt its fundamental value, solidarity, as well as those principles mentioned above to our modern, globalised world without ceasing to collaborate with its immediate environment, the Co-operative Movement needs to apply these concepts to the world at large.
