The ICA Committee on Co-operative Research is a thematic committee of the International Co-operative Alliance (ICA). It is a bridge between academic research and the co-operative world.
The ICACCR aims at strengthening activities and making the work of researchers
more visible, particularly to managers and co-operators so that resarch results
can be applied to current co-operatives issues. For example, questions concerning
social audit, co-operative principles, innovation, globalisation and the local
dimensions of co-operatives, developing co-operative advantage and the emergence
of new wave co-operatives have all been reviewed from both a practical and theoretical
stance.
One of the main activities of the ICACCR is the organisation of
reserach conferences at the global and regional levels. See
