The cooperative aims to promote the association and collaboration of Italian-speaking socialists in Switzerland; to support institutions of democratic-socialist orientation through donations; to support the free trade union and cooperative movement and to cooperate with the local workers' movement; to support old members, as well as members affected by misfortune or in need, and Italian-speaking socialists; to support Italian-speaking workers who are passing through or looking for work. The statutes contain more detailed information on how this purpose is to be achieved.
