Koperasi telah lama menjadi salah satu pilar utama perekonomian Indonesia, namun minat generasi muda terhadap model bisnis ini mengalami penurunan di era digital. Transformasi koperasi melalui inovasi dan digitalisasi menjadi tantangan sekaligus peluang untuk menarik keterlibatan Generasi Y dan Z. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi pandangan dan minat kedua generasi tersebut terhadap koperasi, dengan fokus pada inovasi digital, keberlanjutan sosial, dan akses teknologi. Menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan desain fenomenologi, penelitian ini melibatkan wawancara semi-terstruktur dengan 5 informan dari Generasi Y dan Z yang memiliki pengalaman atau ketertarikan terhadap koperasi. Analisis tematik digunakan untuk mengidentifikasi pola temuan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa meskipun Generasi Y dan Z memiliki ketertarikan terhadap koperasi yang mengusung nilai keberlanjutan dan digitalisasi, masih terdapat kendala berupa keterbatasan pemahaman, pengalaman negatif, serta kurangnya informasi mengenai koperasi. Studi ini menegaskan pentingnya inovasi dalam produk dan layanan koperasi serta peningkatan literasi dan aksesibilitas koperasi bagi generasi muda. Oleh karena itu, koperasi perlu beradaptasi dengan memanfaatkan teknologi digital dan memperkuat strategi promosi berbasis keberlanjutan agar lebih relevan dan menarik bagi Generasi Y dan Z.
