The name ACDI\/VOCA dates back to the 1997 merger of Agricultural Cooperative Development International and Volunteers in Overseas Cooperative Assistance. Both were nonprofit international economic development organizations founded by the U.S. cooperative community.<\/p>\n
The merger achieved new economies of scale and blended the complementary strengths of ACDI\u2019s long-term development approaches and VOCA\u2019s people-to-people volunteer activities. Today we dispense with the long version of our name and use only the acronym (pronounced A-C-D-I-V\u014dca).<\/p>\n
