Activities of CACOR

CACOR holds regular meetings in Ottawa for members and guests, usually to hear speakers on topics related to the aims and interests of the Association. Previously, a Newsletter was published from time to time to note the activities of CACOR, and provide news of interest to members. It was distributed in hard copy and available also on this web site, as shown on the sidebar. Previously too, Proceedings were published quarterly with papers by members and guest contributors on subjects again related to the aims and interests of the Association. The Proceedings were distributed not only to members of CACOR but to all other Club of Rome affiliated associations. These too are available on this web site as shown on the sidebar. Currently (2009-2010) a new publications program is under development as is CACOR's online presence. Administration functions of CACOR including data on Board of Directors, Officers, Terms of Reference of Committees, may be found by clicking here.

L'Association canadienne pour le Club de Rome est une association indépendente canadienne créé
à l'appui des buts fondateurs de la Club de Rome. À l’heure actuelle, l’Association ne dispose
pas de ressources de traduction pour offrir le contenu de son site Web en français.
Nous souhaitons sincèrement être en mesure de remédier à cette lacune à l’avenir.
Toutefois, nous nous engageons à répondre à toute correspondance de votre part en français.
Merci de votre compréhension
