Co-op Week is fast approaching and ACCA is excited to announce a special online conference event being co-hosted with the BC Co-operative Association (BCCA). ACCA and BCCA are proud to offer this thought-provoking two-hour session that explores the factors that will impact the co-operative sector, and your members, over the next 18 months.

The Co-operative Intelligence Unit (CIU) has released its thought-provoking paper, Co-operatives in the time of COVID-19, that examines the COVID and post-pandemic world from a variety of perspectives and drivers of change.

The AGM, postponed from May 27 due to COVID-19, will take place virtually using Zoom, on Tuesday, October 13, 2020, from 9 – 10:30 a.m. Watch for your AGM Registration Package, coming soon!

As part of our Co-op Week celebration (and in lieu of our Annual Gathering of Co-operatives), ACCA is hosting a two-hour session on Wednesday, October 14, that explores the factors that will impact the co-operative sector – and your members – in the next 18 months.

A paper being developed by multiple participants discussing COVID-19 and the impacts and opportunities for co-operatives will be a key component of one of the 2020 ACCA Gathering sessions.

The virtual event will start Tuesday, October 13, at 9:00 a.m., and will include the ACCA AGM postponed from earlier this year.

The ACCA Board of Directors held its regular meeting via Zoom conference call on Friday, March 27. Much of the discussion centred around COVID-19 and the impacts to ACCA and its members.

The survey results are in and the 2019 Gathering and MLA Reception was a hit!
