Governance

Board of Directors 2010Members of the CCCBE's Board of Directors.

The centre is advised by a board composed of members from the co-operative and wider community, and an equal number of academics from UVic—including two Deans. It also includes a Program Committee to advise on the academic program of the Centre. The current Board Chair is Dr. J. Howard Brunt, Vice President of Research at UVic.

Message from the Director

"The sense of connection with a wide range of people across campus and into the community is stimulating. So also is the high level of activity at the Centre itself, with our growing community of academics, graduate students, and community fellows."

Dr. Ana Maria Peredo, Associate Professor at the Peter B. Gustavson School of Business, is the current Director of the Centre for Co-operative and Community-Based Economy. Her expertise in the field of community-based enterprises makes her a valuable asset to the centre.
