SUMMARY:Webinar: Building a Resilient and Equitable Economy Post-Covid: What Worker Co-operatives Do
DESCRIPTION:
\n
\n
\nWorker co-operatives, and co-operatives in general, are more resilient than corporately and privately owned businesses to many economic challenges.  How have they done in the midst of a global pandemic, an economic and climate crisis?  There is good news here for renewing our commitment to the growth of worker co-operatives in Canada and various other countries.  Will worker co-operatives pick up the banner of hope against these global challenges?
