Do you think youth are the future? There are 3 exciting opportunities for youth to meet and share during the V Cooperative Summit of the Americas next week!
Book 25 October to participate in the Global Youth Forum-Cooperative Entrepreneurship workshop organised by the ICA-EU Partnership (#coops4dev) and the Global Youth Network. Come and brainstorm about the challenges that young entrepreneurs and professionals encounter and how to overcome them. Let’s also debate on how to help young co-operators redesign the way we think about entrepreneurship with new ways of working and living where people come before profit.
You are also invited to join us during the Regional Youth Meeting on 24 October. The President of the Youth Network, Sébastien Chaillou, will make a presentation during the meeting about the global Youth Network and the exciting initiatives. Don’t miss it! The meeting will be a forum for learning, thinking and debate, to provide conceptual tools and to deepen the discussion on how to incorporate the youth perspective in each of the activities and in each of the co-operative sectors in the Americas region.
Another opportunity to build the Youth Network will be the Global Youth Network Assembly on 25 October: two open seats will be filled on the Youth Executive Committee. The Official Meeting documentation is available both in English and Spanish.
If you attend the workshop and Assembly on 25 October, you will be invited to join us for lunch just after at a coop restaurant around the corner. To join for lunch, RSVP with Gretchen Hacquard, Youth Network coordinator.
