International Worker Help (Ido: Internacia laboristal helpo), abbreviated to interhelpo, was a Czechoslovakia-based cooperative for developing socialism in Bishkek (then Frunze) of Soviet Kyrgyzstan.

It became a successful cooperative in the Soviet Union. It has been slandered by bourgeois media, accusing it of being a failure.

History[edit | edit source]

Foundation[edit | edit source]

Interhelpo was founded in 1923 by a group of Idists in response to the Communist International's Resolution on Proletarian Aid to Soviet Russia.

Rudolf Pavlovič Mareček recruited the first potential members from the circle of an Ido language club.[1]
