To "Sarah James" <jam...@worldnet.att.net> cc Subject Announcing Spring 2009 Ecomunicipality Leadership Training

Torbjörn Lahti and I are pleased to announce the third annual Spring training in ecomunicipality leadership at Tufts University May 29-June 2, 2009. This is an exciting course that empowers participants to lead comprehensive, systematic sustainability change processes in their communities and regions. Responding to the current economic situation, we are offering this year a shorter, more condensed, and reduced-cost training program. The attached notice contains more details about the training, contact and registration information.
 
Sponsors of the training will be the Tufts University Urban & Environmental Policy & Planning Department, the forthcoming Tufts Sustainability Planning Institute, and others to be announced.
 
We would greatly appreciate it if you would forward this email and flier to your network and to anyone you think might be interested.
 
Here’s what previous participants have said about the ecomunicipality leadership training:  
 
 
“Experts Sarah James and Torbjorn Lahti provide a training experience which is not just a tremendous dose of hope, but delivers a high quality sustainable development tool kit mixed with an outstanding assembly of fellow community builders.”            
Steve Weinberg, co-founder Sustainable Mt. Airy, Philadelphia, PA
 
Other participants said:
 
“The encouragement that is derived from working in a cooperative group is an immeasurable gift. I am certain that I have expanded the horizons of my possible audiences and have grown in my confidence to offer a worthwhile experience.”
 
“This coming together…and learning in a nurturing atmosphere made it possible for me to learn new stratagems to work toward social change.”
 
“Provides a more in-depth understanding of the [Natural Step] system conditions, human needs model, and how they relate. As well as very practical instruction and exercises in how to apply the model in the eco-municipality process.”
 
See the attached notice for more information. We hope you’ll be interested!
