ACYM - América Cooperativa y Mutual

ACYM (América Cooperativa y Mutual) is a regional network of mutual and cooperative organizations, that promotes the exchange and the study of experiences between the actors involved in providing social protection services. The network is a response to a STEP Programme initiative to contribute to the objectives defined in the "Global Campaign on Social Security and Coverage for All".

ACYM is constituted of three international organisations: the Alianza del Mutualismo de América, the Asociación de Cooperativas y Mutuales de Seguros de las Américas, and the International Health Cooperatives Organisation (IHCO). Its role is also to explore possible collaboration with formal sector social security systems and to promote the implementation of innovating initiatives that contribute to the extension of social security for all.

ACYM has several sections, including one dedicated to resources, where it is possible to access a set of tools related to mutual and cooperative insurance organisations, and the extension of social protection.
