In addition, sessions will highlight the essence of cooperatives as people-centred institutions.

ICA emphasised that the event will focus on cooperative enterprises and institutions as key partners in accelerating the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

To this end, sessions will be held to discuss policies and business ecosystems that promote the development of these institutions, the reaffirmation of cooperative identity, youth and women-centred, and a just, equitable and sustainable future.

The event will also include meetings and workshops of ICA sectors, regions and committees, a seminar of the International Cooperative Health Organisation, the 17th ICA Africa – Regional Assembly, and a film festival.
