Ariel,
Thanks so much for this information.  It is actually a live television
broadcast that will be played on the local networks, and we have just
secured a prime time slot so a lot of people will have access to this.

I welcome the possibility of suggesting these sites to them and hope that it
will provide some background to the issues that are coming up for them in
this rather amazing country that we live in.

If anyone has any suggestions of texts that might discuss the way that women
have been involved in this kind of change, that would be quite interesting
to look at.   Either sites or texts would be useful I think.  There are over
1800 students (all women) involved in the bazaar as well as outside
organisations and the theme is extremely broad (a series of displays that
have something to do with ecology).  Several important members of the
government will be attending including His Highness Sheik Mohammed bin
Rashid Al Maktoum (the Crown Prince of Dubai) and the minister for Education
and the Environment (who is also the College's Chancellor), Sheik Nayan
Maktoum Al Nayan.   So this is an important opportunity for the women
involved, it should be an interesting event.

Again if anyone else has any suggestions, I would welcome them.

Regards,
Sandy Indlekofer-O'Sullivan
