| dc.description | The aim of this document is to describe and analyze the development of an organization of small family farmers of the Dominican Republic that has been in existence for seven years and can show positive results in economic, social and environmental terms for the families that make it up. It is understood that showing this kind of successful experiences may serve as a reference point for designing public policy proposals, and be a stimulating factor for producers of other regions, demonstrating that “it is possible to get ahead with own effort”, belief in peers, obtaining support from public and international entities that can provide advice in important fields for the organization’s performance, and continuously improving bargaining capacities with clients.Savings, Credit and Multiple Services Cooperative for Bamboo in Bonao (Cooperativa de Ahorro, Crédito y Servicios Múltiples Bonao en Bambú in Spanish),COOPBAMBU, is located in the Monseñor Nouel Province, in the Municipality of San Isidro, Municipal District of Sonador, at the community of San Isidro, Juma, a territory in which independent workers are the main workforce, particularly men (61.4 percent) in relation to women (34.5 percent).
