ICBEC

International Co-operative Business Education Consortium

The International Co-operative Business Education Consortium (ICBEC or the Consortium) was initially launched in 2013 and grew to include 30+ organizations from 24+ countries in the years that followed. A 2014 mapping helped to provide an overview of the types of organizations offering co-operative business education.

In 2021, with support from diverse actors in the global co-operative sector, ICBEC is connecting 150+ institutions from 40+ countries around the world – and counting. The Centre is a proud member!
