 This should help us to start organizing shared orders between different
 nodes, producers and collectives involved in FairCoop. And furthermore,
 it could be a useful tool for many social movements; some existing 
consumer networks are organizing together to use this tool, as part of 
the Red de Compras Colectivas, (Network of Collective Purchases).
<p>To explain briefly how it works, it is very similar to a crowd-funding campaign:<br>
– Any producer, local node, or group of consumers can open a specific 
product called collective purchases. They define characteristics like 
the price of a product, the minimum amount that a customer should pay, 
the total amount that should be paid, and a limited time of the offer, 
if applicable.</p></div></div>
