On June 26, ICAO EXOM & GENERAL MEETING was held in Brussels, Belgium, where representatives of ICAO member organizations discussed ways to strengthen communication and sustainable agricultural development among global agricultural cooperatives.
The ICAO Executive Committee and General Assembly approved the 2023 business plan, including ▲ Scholarship in Korea ▲ Working chance in the ICAO secretariat.
In particular, Chairman Lee Sung-hee demonstrated the digital platform "ICAO With" developed to expand cooperation between member institutions and asked member institutions to participate.
ICAO With, which has a chat function and a function of introducing products and services from member institutions, is expected to contribute to communication between member institutions and revitalization of trade between cooperatives.
"I know that not only agriculture but also other sub-organizations belonging to the International Federation of Cooperatives (ICA) are interested in building a digital platform," said CHRISTIE ROWENA, CEO of the Philippine Federation of Sustainable Development Cooperatives (FPSDC).
"We expect that 'inter-cooperative cooperation' included in the international cooperative principle will be further promoted through digital platforms," said Ivan Asiimwe, head of the Uganda Cooperative Federation (UCA).
Chairman Lee said, "We will further upgrade the digital platform to expand education, seminars, and business discovery among cooperatives."
