Africa's Cooperative Economy, Digitized.
Africa's estimated 46 million savings and credit cooperative members (WOCCU, 2024) represent one of the continent's most powerful economic forces. The Cooperative Development Exchange is designed to bring this collective power on-chain, enabling cooperatives to issue tokenized shares, pool investments, trade between cooperatives, and distribute dividends transparently.
Built on AfriVest's infrastructure and designed to align with the International Cooperative Alliance (ICA) principles, the exchange is intended to ensure that cooperative values of democratic control, member economic participation, and community concern are embedded directly into the protocol.
