Abstract: Abstract This chapter attempts to understand how a cooperative organisation can facilitate sustainable development goals (SDGs) through social entrepreneurship. This study identified a cooperative organisation practising social entrepreneurship and investigated its two decades of experience by interviewing key members, examining annual reports and web information. Interviews were conducted in two spells between 2015 and 2020. Analysis of narratives suggested that cooperative organisations with bottom-up approach, member-driven management, and nested with sister organisations are well-equipped to achieve SDGs. At the theoretical level, this research advances the debate on nurturing social value creation in social entrepreneurship and considers SDGs as an appropriate measure for the same.
