Dear friends, Burma workers, Europeans, supporters and all,
As many of you know we are weeks away from a major event happening in Brussels this December 12. Director Ruud Gielens has put together an incredible line-up of speakers, entertainers, activists and all manner of engaged people.
Speakers like Karel De Gucht, current E.U. Commisioner for Development have lent their time and efforts to this one-off social enterprise (in the form of an event). Burma VJ is recieving international aclaim and we have one of the main protagonists, Aung Htun, coming from S.E. Asia to speak with us. There is strong media interest and we will be shining a light on the prospective 2010 elections. We are also highlighting the human response of cross-border NGO agencies and in this light we are delighted that Steve Gumaer, founder of Partners World will be speaking at the event
