ICA General Assembly

The General Assembly is the highest authority of ICA and is made up representatives appointed by ICA member organisations. The General Assembly meets every second year to:
  • formulate and implement the policy on major issues affecting the future of ICA and the world-wide co-operative movement;
  • approve the work programme of ICA;
  • elect the President and the Board, and the Audit and Control Committee, and to ratify the election of the Vice-Presidents;
  • ratify the appointment or removal of the Director-General on the recommendation of the Board;
  • amend the ICA Rules, Policies, Procedures and Standing Orders;
  • decide on the membership subscriptions and representation formulae;
  • approve the ICA annual audited accounts and the report of the Audit and Control Committee.
The last General Assembly was held in Rome (Italy), 2008. The next Assembly and related events will be held in Geneva (Switzerland) from 16-20 November 2009 at the Geneva International Conference Centre.
