OCCE 15, the Office Central de la Coopération à l’École, is deeply committed to fostering a culture of cooperation and shared responsibility within secular schools. Our programs are designed to equip students with the skills and knowledge necessary to thrive in a democratic society. We believe that by actively participating in school cooperatives, students develop a profound understanding of civic engagement and social responsibility. Through hands-on experiences and collaborative projects, students learn to navigate complex issues, make informed decisions, and contribute meaningfully to their communities. Our approach emphasizes the importance of active listening, respectful dialogue, and the pursuit of common goals. We strive to create an environment where students feel empowered to voice their opinions and work together towards positive change. The benefits of school cooperatives extend far beyond the classroom. They cultivate essential life skills, such as critical thinking, problem-solving, and communication. Students develop a sense of ownership and accountability, learning to take responsibility for their actions and the impact they have on others. Ultimately, OCCE 15 aims to empower students to become active and engaged citizens who are prepared to shape a better future.
