Program information
The Advisory Services component is managed nationally by the Canadian Co-operative Association (CCA) and the Conseil canadien de la coopération et de la mutualité (CCCM). These organizations work with local, regional and sectoral co-op organizations to provide the expertise that individuals and co-ops need to start or run a co-op.
One of the main goals of CDI Advisory Services is to support co-operative development by ensuring that technical and expert advice are provided to individuals and groups wishing to create or strengthen a co-operative.
In the delivery of the Advisory Services program component, CCA and CCCM will focus on 4 main goals:
- Support co-operative development by ensuring that technical and expert advice are provided to individuals and groups wishing to create or strengthen a co-operative;
- Strengthen capacity of national, regional and sector co-op organizations to promote and develop co-ops;
- Raise awareness of the co-op model as a community and business development tool; and
- Establish broad-based partnerships between cooperatives and other community-based organizations in order to increase the use of the co-operative model as a community development and business tool.
Technical assistance and expert advice are directly delivered by regional and sectoral co-operative organizations.
