Regional Forums
Where regional cooperative leaders come together to shape what comes next
The ACCOSCA Regional Forums unite cooperative leaders across each regional bloc for focused dialogue, peer learning, and collaborative action on the issues shaping their region’s future.
About the Regional Forums
The ACCOSCA Regional Forums serve as a bridge between global trends, continental priorities, and regional realities. Bringing together SACCO and credit union leaders from across East, West, and Southern Africa, the forums create opportunities to explore emerging issues, share experiences, and translate broader industry insights into practical strategies that reflect the unique needs of each region.
Hosted on a rotational basis within each regional bloc, the forums provide a platform for participants to engage with pressing governance, regulatory, market, and institutional challenges, exchange proven practices with fellow cooperators, and contribute regional perspectives that help inform ACCOSCA’s broader advocacy, policy, and program priorities across the continent.
