Re: Fwd(2): Youthexchange about ecological footprint in Austria

[Elliott Saxby]

NextGEN Findhorn, please read.

Dear Elisabeth, Daniel past your request on to me. My current understanding is that as NextGEN is an International organization it is unwise for us to partner as an org in a program country.
We have Partnered with Tamera in the past as an International org.
Sieben Linden in Germany are doing a very similar project and the Findhorn Foundation in Scotland are looking into being one of the partner orgs.

We now have a small grouped formed to look deeper in Youth In Action so I will pass this on to them to double check.

If you want to make a request to the Findhorn Foundation to partner with you please let me know and I will pass the info on. The problem at present is we have to few young people with enough flexibility in their work to attend such events.
I have forwarded this message to NextGEN Findhorn as maybe someone in our circle has an org that can partner with you for the funding.
Hope this leads to some good news for you, peace, Elliott.


Hi Elisabeth,

It was a pleasure to meet you at Eschwege.


I will have to pass on the opportunity to get involved with the initiative at the Austrian ecovillage Keimblatt, but
I believe I met one of their team at the GEN +10 conference at Findhorn in 2005. They are great people.


I have forwarded this to Ruby and Elliott Saxby from Next GEN.  Next GEN would be the ideal partner for this 
camp.  I expect Elliott to get in touch with you to say yes or no regarding their involvement.


Thanks for thinking of us.


Best,
Daniel

Hi!
 
Thanks for the great days in Eschwege... hope you had a nice and productive last day... :-)
 
One of our partner organisations in Austria is organising a youth exchange in June 09. It is an Austrian "Ökodorf" - might be an interesting connection for young people from Findhorn. Enclosed some information...
They are still looking for a partner organisation - good opportunity, isn't it??
 
Hope you are all fine
 
Warm greetings and a big hug from Innsbruck!
 
Elisabeth
