Province-wide Co-operatives tour making stop in PG

Prince George will be the last stop for the BC Co-op Association’s Co-ops Build a better World: BC Tour.

The event will have a screening of the film “The Power of Local,” as well as panelist talks from local co-operatives and network session.

Community Engagement and Education Coordinator Madelyn Read said who this event is geared towards.

“As Co-ops, we often want to work together with other Co-operatives, so that could include non-profits, businesses that are community focused, folks who just like to volunteer and support their community.”

“I also think it really appeals to people who are thinking about how we can do things more sustainably, or more locally.”

Read added the goal is for attendees to have a better understanding of what’s happening in the community, and what the co-op system is and how it can be used.

The event will be on Tuesday, at the Knox Centre, with doors opening at 4:30 p.m. and going until 7 p.m..
