From Ecuador to Trento: fourth study visit on the social economy and cooperative credit
The fourth edition of the course “Innovation, Leadership and Governance for Cooperatives”, organised by EURICSE in collaboration with Finanzas Inclusivas y Gobernanza (FIG), has come to a successful conclusion.
From 14 to 16 April, a delegation of representatives, managers and directors from cooperative banks in Ecuador took part in a study visit to Trento. The initiative provided an important opportunity for discussion on the themes of innovation and cooperative governance, through classroom training sessions with lecturers and experts from EURICSE, Trentino Federation of Cooperation and Cassa Centrale Group.
The programme included visits to several significant cooperative organisations in the Trentino region, including Banca per il Trentino-Alto Adige and the Mezzacorona Group, which enabled participants to gain a deeper understanding of the role and impact of good cooperative practices on regional development.
The interest shown by participants confirms the importance of strengthening dialogue and collaboration between cooperative bodies and institutions at an international level.
With this in mind, EURICSE is continuing its commitment with the fifth edition of the course, scheduled for 5 to 7 May, with the aim of promoting an ever-broader and more shared understanding of the cooperative model at both local and global levels.
