Event description:
Since 2016, the Canadian Centre for the Study of Co-operatives has conducted an annual survey that asks co-operative and credit union leaders across Canada what they view are the most pressing concerns facing co-operatives today. In this Co-op Conversation, Stan Yu, Research and Communications Coordinator at the Canadian Centre for the Study of Co-operatives, will share our findings from the 2022 survey, how they compare with past iterations of the survey, and start a conversation about what the co-operative sector can do to start addressing these issues.
