The event is a significant conference to boost cooperation between governments and the cooperative sector in the context of global integration.
It will give Viet Nam an opportunity to introduce and promote its image and its consistent policy of being a friend to all countries, and to share experience in developing a sustainable cooperative economy.
Earlier, leaders of regional cooperatives gathered at consultation conferences, discussing the five main issues, namely food sovereignty and security, new approach to cooperatives, the informal economy and transitions to formality, regional and global participation of cooperatives, and a fair environment in terms of legal framework and policies.
The conferences adopted 16 conclusions and nine recommendations, to be submitted to the ministers’ meeting.
