INTERNATIONAL COOPERATIVE CONFERENCE: 21-22 June 2012
Building A Better World: The Role of Cooperatives and Mutuals in Society
The UN has declared 2012 to be International Year of Cooperatives. As part of the New Zealand celebrations of this International Year, the NZASCM will be organising an international conference on cooperative research on June 21 and 22 2012 in Wellington entitled “Building A Better World: The Role of Cooperatives and Mutuals in Society”.
The NZASCM will be formally launched at this conference, which is being organised jointly with the School of Economics and Finance, Victoria University of Wellington and the New Zealand Cooperatives Association.
In addition to research presentations, the conference will include practical seminars and workshops specifically tailored towards the legal, governance, capitalisation, regulatory and accounting challenges by cooperative and mutual businesses in New Zealand.
