WHERE IS MESOPOTAMIA?

Often seen as the cradle of civilisation, the ‘land between two rivers’ covers parts of modern day Syria, Turkey and Iraq.

WHAT’S HAPPENING?

In Northern Syria and southeast Turkey, known to their predominantly Kurdish populations as Rojava and Bakur, a revolutionary social movement is taking root.

WHY CO-OPERATIVES?

As people take democratic control of their lives and workplaces, co‑ops play an important role.

SEARCH THE MAP

Hundreds of co-ops – businesses owned and run democratically – are thriving in Mesopotamia.
