Hello!
I don't work directly for NAAEE, but am familiar with the people who do.
I've forwarded your message to them, and they said they're sending you
a registration packet.

hm, there's a possibility that I'll be in Vancouver at about this time, I didn't
know about the conference, but would really like some more details ... if
I am in Vancouver at the time it will be to follow up last years field work.
I spent four months in Vancouver and on Vancouver Island interviewing
women who have participated in an ecofeminist Peace Camp in the
summer of 1993 - the camp lasted four months, over 12,000 people
attended, over 900 people were arrested blockading logging roads,
protesting against the clear cut logging of temperate rainforest ...
Vancouver / Van Is is one of the few places I've been where
everybody has heard of ecofeminism ... so whether at the conference
or not, there are lots of self-identified ecofeminists about. One woman I
met, Fireweed, was planning to organise "Gathering in the Green"
basically a week long series of workshops, etc, on ecofeminism - guess
- this August, I haven't heard any updates on this .. but could try and
find out if it is still on ... so maybe, you could send me send me details of
the conference, if I'm about it sounds good, and I could try and get back
in touch with you when I've found out if anyone is giving me money to
go back to Vancouver!
