Sept 3 - 5 Sustainable Societies, Responsive Citizens: United Nations NGO Conference, Bonn, Germany - Representing VFP

We are representing Veterans For Peace at the annual United Nations NGO conference in Bonn, Germany.  This year's topic is "Sustainable Societies, Responsive Citizens".  We fly to London on August 30/31 and are taking a bus into Cologne, near Bonn.  We're still looking for accommodations in both London and Bonn.

We are hoping to be able to check phone messages via Skype.  However, it won't be daily - we'll purchase pay-as-you-go phones and get new sim cards in each country.  These will be used to communicate locally - we expect to return messages mostly by email, so if you want to contact us, use Helen.Jaccard@gmail.com and ProjectSafeHaven@hotmail.com.
