WMRCC is running a two-year-project of developing worker cooperatives, funded by OTF.
The panel will be 6-women workers from childminding, personal support, interpretation, cleaning, art, & sewing. Each woman is heading a cooperative-group of 20-25 women trained in 7-principles, and 10-steps of developing a co-operative.
A slide of pictures will be shown on projector about the project.
The coordinator will introduce topics in three rounds; need of making a worker cooperative, challenges of developing a worker cooperative, the help available in start-up, & growing by coop stakeholders. 
Then the floor will be open for discussions and networking opportunities.
