Event Description
For nearly a decade, Canadian co-operative leaders have consistently told us that the most pressing issue facing the Canadian co-operative movement is a lack of awareness about the co-operative model. And yet, a national poll commissioned by the Canadian Centre for the Study of Co-operatives and the CRS Chair in Co-operative Governance through Modus Research suggests that the word “co-operative” is evocative of positive feelings. In this webinar, Modus CEO Charlie Graves will share key findings from the survey, including evidence on:
- Awareness of co-operatives and the model;
- Perceptions of co-operatives, including top-of-mind views and the relative strengths of co-operatives compared with others types of businesses;
- Participation in co-operatives, including key factors driving membership and the willingness to start a new co-operative;
- The kinds of facts that, if they were better known, might drive or enhance support for co-operatives;
- Regional perspectives on the perception and sentiment towards co-operatives;
- And more.
