The annual FAPA YPG Advocacy Conference in Washington DC is coming up in 3 weeks! It's a great way to meet like-minded individuals and learn how to advocate for Taiwan. FAPA will cover lodging costs so all you'll need to take care of is the registration and transportation fees. If you're wondering about how to get to DC, there are a couple local people who are planning to drive down to DC so we can connect you with them. Please consider coming to the conference. It's an awesome and fun time! Plus, Monday will be your opportunity to visit Capitol Hill and meet with congressional members! If you have any questions, feel free to email me.
==== 2010 FAPA YPG Advocacy Conference =====
Join us for a weekend-long conference where you will meet similar-minded people, learn more about U.S.-Taiwan-China relations, master the ABCs of advocacy, and apply what you learn the following Monday on Capitol Hill by meeting with your elected officials to advocate for Taiwan’s cause!
If you are a Taiwanese national, it is understandable why you care about Taiwan. You still have the opportunity to influence American policy makers by voicing your opinions and fighting for your beloved home country.
If you are Taiwanese American, *Taiwan* is the most solid bond you share with your family members and relatives. It is your responsibility to speak out for what you believe in and bring about a change in outdated policies.
If you do not fit into either of the above categories, your advocacy for Taiwan is just as important because you will make a lasting impression on American lawmakers by showing them that you care about Taiwan as well!
***
WHEN: Saturday, August 21 ~ Monday, August 23
WHERE: Washington, DC (hotel TBA)
FEE: $40 for registration (FAPA covers the cost of lodging)
DEADLINE: Sunday, August 8 (applications processed on a rolling basis)
