Deadline: January 2020
The International Cooperative Alliance (ICA) invites designers worldwide to bid to be the creators of their World Cooperative Congress visual identity. The World Cooperative Congresses are a historical moment for the movement and are convened only on very special occasions. It is the decade encounter of cooperatives from all around.
This Congress is particularly special because the ICA is celebrating its 125th anniversary and the 25th anniversary of the Statement on the Cooperative Identity. The general topic of the Congress is ‘Cooperative identity’, which includes the universal cooperative definition, values and principles.
The 2020 Congress will be held in Seoul (Republic of Korea) from 11-16 December 2020. It will be the second Congress to be held outside Europe.
