Details
We want to act now to lead, fight climate change and maximize the benefits of an innovative and digital society. In Montreal we are giving cooperatives the tools they need to take action, and the space to enable the cooperation among cooperatives needed to achieve goals. Participants will engage in workshops that will serve as the building blocks for the GICS community of practice, who will continue sharing innovative ideas throughout the years. This community of practice will be open to cooperatives, mutuals, academics and anyone who is interested in the cooperative business model.
