2009 WE-Speak youth conference catchup

antz — Sun, 29 Nov 2009 20:12:36 +0000

So! Been a while since the 2009 WE-Speak youth conference, and the results are FINALLY ready to be released. So naturally White Elephant is working on a release party at the moment, which you are ALL cordially invited too.

The idea of WE-Speak is to get our (“youths”, 13-25) voice out there and public – in other words, let people know
A: that we give a flying
B: that there are solutions

Before we release the formal report we’re collecting last-minute info, so if you have any input, tap it out in our discussion forum (http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?topic=11941&uid=150872384520) and we’ll add it to the release. This is your LAST CHANCE to contribute to something that will shape the focus of many people’s efforts in 2010, so go nuts, lets hear it!
