Co-operation among co-operators: The Irish-British connection, 21-22 February 2025, Belfast; UKSCS / SCSI Conference 2025
The Centre for Co-operative Studies is delighted to share details of a landmark event in Belfast, hosted by the UK Society for Co-operative Studies and the Society for Co-operative Studies Ireland. This gathering marks a pivotal moment for the co-operative movement across these islands, as we look ahead to 2025, the International Year of Co-operatives, under the theme ‘Co-operatives Build a Better World’.
This event presents a unique opportunity to explore how co-operative knowledge and insights from Ireland and Britain can shape a better future. Delegates are invited to reflect on the vital role of co-operatives in fostering a stronger, more equitable economy, particularly in light of recent political developments and ongoing discussions about Ireland’s constitutional future.
