This category applies to topics around working relationships across organisations in the meet.coop open community. Topics in this category serve as a **feed** or gathering ground for the `Solidarity` thread of discussions in the Community programme, and also furnish **highlights** emerging in those sessions.

The community of meet.coop members comprises many kinds of organisations - Coops, civil-society collaborations, movement organisations, infrastructure providers, learning networks. Etcetera. This category serves to tag discussions of **principles and intentions** of our collaboration, and **practical means** for achieving collaboration-with-plurality. This is a bit like to the free-software mantra: “Rough consensus, and running code”.

This category also tags `offers and wants` of **mutual aid**.

Broad Community programme matters are covered by the primary Community category.
