Carlos Zarco, a new director of the International Cooperative Alliance

Dr. Carlos Zarco, the General Manager of the Fundación Espriu, has been elected as a director of the board of directors of the International Cooperative Alliance. His appointment took place during the assembly that the international organism held in Seville in June of this year within the framework of the International Cooperative Gathering.

The assembly, at which 246 entities from 81 different countries were represented, renewed its support for the Argentinean Ariel Guarco as the Chairman for the next four years. As the representative of international healthcare cooperativism, Dr. Zarco takes on this new responsibility with the aim of promoting the Alliance’s growth and developing its influence and representation capacity in the international organisms and decision-making centres.

The International Cooperative Alliance, founded in 1895, is the organism that brings together and represents 310 cooperative organizations in 110 countries, providing a global voice and a coordinated action for the 3 million cooperative companies existing in the world.
