Collaboration Practitioners Network Conference Call

Patricia Bonner, who is Lead Staff for Collaboration & Public Involvement with the U.S. Environment and Protection Agency, says: "When I was in Toronto in October it was my good fortune to engage in conversations with leaders of the Canadian Community for Dialogue and Deliberation (C2D2) and several practitioners from Environment Canada. I suggested that our Network meeting might be a good forum for a US/Canada conversation about environmental public engagement as it's done in the two countries. Without a doubt, we can learn from one another.

Anyone who receives an invitation, whether direct or via a forwarded message, is welcome to call in and also to e-mail questions or topics for the speakers to address. These e-mails should reach nurse [dot] leanneatepa [dot] gov AND bonner [dot] patriciaatepa [dot] gov by noon on December 30, 2010. All questions will be forwarded to the speakers at that time."
