SUMMARY:Australian and New Zealand perspectives on Cooperative Identity
DESCRIPTION:Miss this webinar? Watch it online and download the presentations. \nAn invitation to discuss perspectives on the Cooperative Identity\nThe International Cooperative Alliance (ICA)\, the global apex for the co-operative and mutual movement\, is holding a worldwide consultation on the Cooperative Identity. With an estimated 1 billion members and 3 million co-op businesses worldwide\, how co-ops deliver on their purpose is driven by the underlying principles and values that guide them. \nJoining with our New Zealand counterpart\, Cooperative Business New Zealand (Cooperative Business NZ)\, we invite members\, business leaders\, stakeholders and anyone with an interest in the co-op movement to join an online discussion exploring how we think about\, communicate and live our co-operative identity as member-based businesses. \nIn an age of ESG and B Corp\, our organisations are positioned for the future we currently face into. We want to ensure as first world economies\, that our principles propel and advance our business success and provide us with competitive advantage. \nAbout the Statement on the Cooperative Identity:\nThe ICA is the global steward of the Statement on the Cooperative Identity – the Values and Principles of the cooperative movement. In 1995\, the ICA adopted the revised Statement on the Cooperative Identity which contains the definition of a co-operative\, the values of cooperatives\, and the seven cooperative principles described below. You can also consult the Guidance Notes on the Cooperative Principles and Values which give detailed guidance and advice on the practical application of the Principles to the cooperative enterprises. \n\nOpen and voluntary membership\nDemocratic Member Control\nMember Economic Participation\nMember autonomy and independence\nEducation\, Training and Information\nCo-operation amongst co-operatives\nConcern for community (social responsibility)\n\nJoin us for this webinar where you will gain an understanding of the global consultation on the Co-operative Identity and contribute your views to the ICA. Australia and New Zealand rely significantly on our co-op and mutual businesses for our economy and communities\, so please make sure our movement has a voice in the consultation. \nDate: Tuesday\, 5 December 2023 \nTime: 2:30 pm – 4:00 pm AEDT (4:30 pm – 6:00 pm NZDT) \nVenue: Online Webinar \nPresenters\n \nMelina Morrison\, CEO\, BCCM and Co-Vice Chair Co-operative Identity Advisory Group\nMelina Morrison has been a driving force for change in the cooperative movement for two decades.
