In 2011, the Social Economy Research Network of Northern Canada convened its final annual Northern Summit on the Social Economy from November 21-23, 2011 in Yellowknife, Northwest Territories.
Over the previous five years, the Summit had provided participants from all over the North with a forum to share research information, engage in public discussions, and broach a variety of topics relevant to the needs of local social economy organizations. Past gatherings have been held in Inuvik, Iqaluit, Whitehorse, and Happy Valley-Goose Bay.
This summit was the last opportunity for SERNNoCA to convene its pan-Northern network as it wound down its activities in early 2012.
