2009 Cooperative Education and Training Institute
In Our Backyards: Defending the Environmental Commons
November 6-8, 2009
Ann Arbor, MI
A Cooperative Education & Training Conference
Each November, over 400 participants from all over the United States, Canada and beyond converge in Ann Arbor, Michigan to share ideas, learn new skills, and look at issues affecting the cooperative movement worldwide. NASCO's Cooperative Education & Training Institute, which has been providing cooperative training and education annually since 1977, is widely recognized as one of the most important training and networking opportunities available to cooperative members, directors, staff and managers.
The annual NASCO Institute is always a one of a kind opportunity to network with hundreds of cooperative leaders and employers, to caucus about pressing issues, and to work on building an inclusive and accessible cooperative movement. This year's Institute promises to be especially compelling as we build on recent explorations on tools for economic justice and land rights.
