Development”. The Confederation comprises of 375<br />
organizations in eighteen countries including 15<br />
Cooperatives Bodies.<br />
The Hon. Dr. Ralph Gonsalves, Prime Minister of<br />
St. Vincent and the Grenadines was the keynote speaker<br />
at the convention official opening ceremony. He spoke<br />
on the Convention’s theme. The four (4) day convention<br />
provided educational and social opportunities for<br />
participants to optimize the Co-operative difference. It<br />
also provided the opportunity for credit unions to reflect<br />
on their successes and to think strategically about the<br />
future of the Regional Co-operative Movement.<br />
Participants received valuable information from eight (8)<br />
General sessions, one (1) Town Hall Meeting and seven<br />
(7) breakout sessions which stimulated discussions on<br />
topics dealing with how to address the latest issues and<br />
strategic goals which will help Credit Unions to progress<br />
effectively, and also enhance their own careers.<br />
