This webinar will begin with a showcase of the experience of participants from the Co-operative Law Summer School held in Pula, Croatia in 2023. This international group will share their experience of working intensively for 10 days in a multicultural environment under the leadership of celebrated co-operative legal expert Dr. Hagen Henry, with support from Dr. Sonja Novkovic, Mr. Santosh Kumar and Dr. Ifigeneia Douvitsa. Participants will reflect on critical insights from their learning and describe the implementation of their knowledge in various roles intersecting with co-operative law (new perspectives, collaborations and paths).
Following these reflections and vignettes, additional speakers from academia and the global co-operative sector will interrogate the intersection of co-operation and law.
They will:
- contemplate the role of law in coops’ development,
- identify major drawbacks and achievements of the cooperative legal landscape of their country,
- compare their experience with that of their peers.
This event is designed to inspire and equip you with actionable insights and – why not - incite you to join us in the next Summer School of 2025!
Whether you are a student, alumnus, legal professional, co-operative practitioner or an advocate for co-ops, this event promises to be a source of inspiration and reflection.
Registrants will be sent further details on the speakers. We look forward to your participation in October! This event is organized collectively by the International Cooperative Alliance, IUS Cooperativum and the International Centre for Co-operative Management at Saint Mary’s University.
