[Sara Longwe]

Dear Colleagues,

I write to find out if you would be interested in co-organizing the
Gender Topic at the 5th Zambia National Social Forum (ZNSF) to be held
all day on 26th November 2010.

The Gender Topic is one 22 topics that have been suggested by the
Zambia Social Forum Committee (ZAMSOF) as per attached paraphrased
list.

I envisage that we form a team of interested people to attend each of
the sessions considering gender is a cross-cutting issues and then
meet to analyse and draw-up next steps before WSF is held in Dakar,
6-11 February 2011.

I'll share more details later to those interested to co-organize the
Gender Topic as a cross-cutting issue across the topics to be
presented at the ZNSF.

Please contact me ASAP @ this email: longw...@gmail.com; We can hold
the first meeting on Monday (22 Nov) @ 12-1400hrs at a venue we can
agree on. We shall also work on email and skype between now and the
meeting.

Warm regards,

Sara Longwe
