Building a community doesn’t just happen
It is the result of carefully planned strategies that develop and sustain strong organizations and vibrant enterprises. Community building is most effective when initiatives are deliberately inclusive of all segments of the population and engage citizens in a genuine and meaningful fashion.
Please join us for this one-day conference featuring presenters from leading co-operative organizations in Canada’s retail, finance, health-care, and insurance sectors. Speakers will explore how the co-operative model currently addresses the most pressing social and economic issues facing our communities, and how it might be applied to further effect.
Who should attend? Community leaders, policy makers, students, developers, co-operative leaders, and anyone else interested in making their community a better place to live, work, and raise a family.
There is no charge to attend this event, but advanced registration is required. Please complete the form (PDF) and fax (306) 966–8517 or email to coop.studies@usask.ca
