INTRODUCTION
The following three sections constitute a review of literature supporting the research done for this toolkit. These items are referenced throughout the toolkit, in order to tie the new reflections and analysis herein to past cooperative research and philosophy. The review begins by chronicling coopyouth research and reporting, a selection of movement canon and cooperative philosophy, and – most importantly – statements from autonomous youth contingents that formed during various movement events throughout the last decade.
