Abstract:
The Africa Ministerial Conference was held in Kampala, Uganda, from the 18 to the 23 rd
November 2002. As usual, the meeting touched on the issues of reforms and change in cooperatives, after liberalization of markets and globalisation. The reality of the need for
member driven co-operative movement was once again confirmed. In the so called
liberalised market conditions, co-operatives, like all other business organisations, have to
compete it out to survive
