Summary/Abstract: This article addresses the issue of new cooperativism in Poland. The research objective was to describe and thereby gain a better understanding of a new form of exercising civic agency through cooperative institutions, particularly in the context of rapid technological change and the development of the digital society. Another objective was to conduct a preliminary assessment of the potential of new cooperativism as a space for building civic agency, especially in Poland, where cooperative traditions are rich but currently require adaptation to the realities of the 21st century. A case study was conducted, analysing the narratives and contents of materials produced by cooperatives, including internal and organisational documents, websites, and social media.
