Self-portrait
Somos reporteros comunitarios, economistas sin corbata, fotógrafos, redactores, y ambientalistas, que ojerosos, flacos y desvelados hacemos La Coperacha.Este es el primer sitio informativo en Mx especializado en cooperativismo y economías solidarias bueno, bonito y gratuito.Y por si fuera poco vinculamos el trabajo de las cooperativas del G-50 con consumidores de carne, hueso y cerebro.
Se nos antoja un mundo desenfadado, equitativo y limpio, por eso nuestro periodismo promueve una economía ciudadana, alternativa y solidaria, al más puro estilo coperacho.Además hacemos El Coyote Itinerante y otras talachas que nos han dado el Premio Nacional de Periodismo 2011, Premio de la Juventud 2009 y el Premio Iniciativas Ciudadanas en Materia de Comunicación Alternativa 2008 y 2011.

Correa; Gabriel Palacios, dominando la pradera verde; en la media luna, Jesús Flores; sembrando rivales Eunice Lozada; Israel Aguirre, el de soporte técnico; Ameyalli Ramos, asistente técnica; y Paco Vite, el dete.Y nuestros refuerzos: Clara Meyra defensora de derechos humanos; Claudia Caballero de los dineros comunitarios; Francia Gutiérrez de Sin Maíz no hay País; Héctor Valdézs, asesor de cooperativas; Xaviera Cabada del Poder del Consumidor y los que se nos junten en la semana.

Description
La coperacha is a news site owned by Formación y Análisis Social, a civil association dedicated to the promotion, research and liaison of solidarity-based economies in Mexico. The team is comprised of journalists, economists, environmentalists, photographers and writers, creating content for news articles, radio, video and photography.
The section titled “talacha informativa” includes news articles, reports, interviews and editorials on the cooperative movement and solidarity economy, as well as information on local, national and international events and initiatives. Reports usually approach topics such as green burials, airlines, bicycle generators, solar-powered vehicles, seeds, migrants and other cooperative projects. The section titled “otros medios” hosts news and articles sourced from other sites, as well as announcements regarding research opportunities, support, new provisions and other useful information.
The site has interviewed experts such as David Barkin, Victor Toledo, Armando Castro Leal, Juan José Rojas, among other, expressing and discussing their views, experiences and challenges around the communal and cooperative movements. The opinions section (titled “opiniones” in Spanish) hosts reviews, revisions, critiques and viewpoints on people, events, cooperative organizations and relevant topics.
The calendar section (titled “agenda” in Spanish) posts upcoming workshops (organic gardening, community currencies), conferences, open air markets and events relevant to public education, recreation and trade. Open air markets advertised on the site promote fair trade and alternative production methods, gathering producers and consumers in different parts of Mexico City to trade organic products, seeds, books, coffee, healthcare products and many other goods and services.
La Coperacha has produced several radio series, such as “De Lengua un Taco” and “La Coper” (available on their website) in collaboration with IMER, Radio Raíces, Radio Chapingo, and the World Association of Community Radio Broadcasters. The section titled “pixel velado” collects a series of images depicting cooperative practices, providing visual information on social currencies, science, art and ecology.
In an effort to link cooperatives with the general public, through the “G-50” section on their site, La Coperacha offers a directory of associated coops, such as: Bicicoperativa Urbana, ALUX de Mexico (environmental managers), Caravana del Hongo, Ecoturismo Olintlali, Kanut Productos de Cacahuate, Historietistas y Artes Visuales and Mujeres Alfareras de Tláhuac.
