It is noteworthy that IFFCO, along with the ICA’s other 17 members from India, is hosting the conference, which will take place at the Bharat Mandapam in the Indian capital from 25 to 30 November under the theme ‘Cooperatives Build Prosperity for All.’
The conference theme draws inspiration from the motto of the Indian cooperative movement: Peace, Progress, and Prosperity. It aims to foster global cooperation, highlight cooperative regions of prosperity, share inspirational models, and promote cooperatives as people-centered, purpose-led, and planet-conscious organizations.
