CWCF CoopZone Conference 2012

 

November 8-10
Ancaster, Ontario

 

The Canadian Worker Co-op Federation and CoopZone invite you to join us in Hamilton, Ontario for our Conference on Surviving and Thriving as a Worker Co-op and also the CWCF AGM, on November 8th - 10th.  There are also optional activities, mostly for CoopZone, on November 7th: an all-day workshop on the Co-op Index, and the first in-person meeting of the CoopZone Legal Network.
 
In this International Year of Co-ops when the federal Government has, appallingly, eliminated the Co-op Development Initiative, worker co-operators and co-operators generally need to figure out how to come together to support ourselves and support each other.  Come to this Conference to share ideas and learn techniques to help your co-op first of all survive, and then thrive. 
  • Take part in our new more participatory approach, with a focus on Financial Viability and Member Development!
  • Meet other worker co-operators and developers from across Canada!
  • Get inspired by other co-ops' stories!
  • Learn practical new tools!   
  • See the Canadian premiere of the Shift Change movie!
  • Help us honour Alain Roy, recipient of the Worker Co-op Merit Award!
Do not miss our keynote speakers Annanda DeSilva and Jack Lamon, from Come As You Are worker co-op in Toronto, the world's only co-operatively run sex shop.
