Abstract
During a seminar organized by Federsolidarietà/Confcooperative “Co-operare per le scuole del futuro” (“Co-operate for the schools of the future”) held in September 2010 as part of the “Educa” festival, some important themes arose around the role of cooperative businesses in the field of education services. This is still an as yet unexplored sector, in fact, one that would merit investigation on the part of cooperatives into the potential areas of development.
