Abstract: This paper seeks to overturn these misconceptions by illustrating that co-operatives formed on the basis of self-help can and do assist their members by bringing more benefits to the worker than if the worker remained a sole operator. Co-operatives can also help promote a wider model of socially inclusive development. As a collective representation of often very poor people, co-operatives play wide-reaching roles in the lives of informal workers. Co-operatives can provide income and enhance livelihoods, help workers gain control of and improve their employment conditions, and enhance workers’ access to resources, facilities, public institutions, and markets. They can also ensure the inclusion of poor women, empower members to channel concerns in policy circles and influence decisions affecting them, and build strong and sustainable organizations at both local and national levels (Motala 2002). Key-word:- co-operative, inclusive development, poor people, livelihoods, resources, public institution, wome empower, Informal Economy.
