May 29 through June 1, 2009

As the global economy continues to crumble around our ears, it is women and children who stand to suffer the most. Lack of food, medical care, shelter, education, and physical safety are all pressing needs that millions around the world are facing today. Amurtel is sponsoring this conference to provide the skills and support for those who are either already working in or wish to become more active in social service. Come join us in the beautiful green of the Irish countryside as we explore the best ways to meet the growing challenges being faced by so many.

· How to determine what project to start

· Designing the project and creating partnerships

· Fundraising and grant writing to sustain the project

· Challenges we face and specific solutions to overcoming them- physical, mental and spiritual

· Management skills needed to run a project.

And of course – wonderful kiirtan, sataunga and delicious organic food provided by the Sunrise Farm.
