The 6th Cooperative Summit of the Americas will be held from October 24-27 in Asunción, Paraguay, followed immediately by the 8th Continental Congress of Cooperative Law.
This year's summit is an opportunity to highlight the impact and commitment of the American cooperative movement to the broader international community's agenda for recovery post-COVID, climate action and sustainable development.
Organized by Cooperatives of the Americas in partnership with its member organizations from Paraguay, the summit is expected to draw 1,200 attendees for three days of debate and learning. Attendees will amplify current issues, identify advocacy priorities and rally around actions that anchor cooperatives as key actors in the international community.
