Co-operative Futures Conference: 20/20 Vision – The Co-operative Future in Focus

February 7, 2020 - February 8, 2020

This is a Co-operative Futures Event

20 years ago Co-operative Futures was formed.  It’s now 2020. What’s happened in the co-op movement since then? What’s going to happen to internationalism and co-operation 20 years after Brexit?

And more to the point, what do co-operators in their 20s want to happen? Welcome to 20/20 Vision.  Join Co-operative Futures to leave the past behind and explore what a co-operative future could look like.

We’re kicking off this year’s conference by celebrating the last 20 years of co-op successes before jumping feet first into planning our co-operative futures.

This year we’re putting co-operators in their twenties in the driving seat (electric vehicles only!) so that they can share their hopes and dreams for the future. Then they’ll challenge us to lay the foundations for their future co-op success. Together we will spend the day devising co-operative solutions for the big changes ahead; food, housing, climate crisis, technology, population growth.

As a veteran co-operator or someone brand new to the sector and keen to find out more, this conference is for you! At Future Co-ops you can be sure of a warm welcome, great networking, and stimulating ideas, shared with others who are passionate about the co-op solution to all things.
