Our community-driven approaches are key to
achieving the Sustainable Development Goals
An inclusive economy
NCBA CLUSA represents the interests of American co-ops. Recognizing the power of this model, governments and firms from around the world have looked to us to help create strong businesses in emerging markets since the end of the Second World War.
We offer a set of tested, proven approaches ideally suited to help a wide range of companies build responsible, sustainable supply chains, and meet their business growth needs in the developing world.
Opportunities to Improve Global Communities
There are many ways you can be part of the movement to empower communities and work toward a shared vision. We believe that the right collaboration, community and commitment can drive positive change.
Global Partnerships
A strong international cooperative partnership looks to fulfill both entity’s goals. You are looking to share resources, knowledge or experience to align your brand with evidence-based projects and change. We have the projects and the experts on board who can do that.
Gain visibility and recognition among our network and supporters. Reach out to a new audience with your positive support and be part of something bigger — something that will affect the lives of people and communities today and ripple into generations that have yet to come.
Volunteer with Us
Volunteer your time and energy to have a direct impact on people worldwide. You can volunteer hands-on, on the farm or share your knowledge of business planning, financial management skills and other training, empowering others with newfound skills.
Send your CV to us at volunteer@ncba.coop. In particular, we are always looking for experts on climate-smart agriculture production practices, but volunteers with a wide range of skills are encouraged to contact us.
