Hey everyone! (This email contains the link to a logistical doodle poll for you to fill out!)
First of all, I just want to reiterate how
awesome you all are. Have I mentioned it? It's worth repeating. I think we did an amazing job in COP.
I've been hearing a lot of commitment and ideas about carrying our great start forward. Why not establish ourselves as major players in the Global Water movement? I think we can do it.
There are a few big water conferences on the radar. The World Water Forum is in March, and RIO+20 is in June, before we even get to the next COP. It's my hope that we have some representation and impact in each of these.
There are also a few things we might want to discuss as a group.
Things I see are:
1) Joining the GWP
2) A website for our group
3) The World Water Forum
4) Working with that Water Youth Group (
http://wateryouthmovement.org/)
5) One of us being on the Youth Water Parliament (

6) Working our policy statements for future conferences (i.e. RIO
7)Discussing the future of this group, (and who will be going to what conferences)
8) Anything else?
So, in light of all that, I thought we might want to schedule a phone call. Here is the link to a doodle poll.
http://www.doodle.com/b6q66mcyashx4t2n Please choose which times you are available.
Keep in mind,
this is South Africa time! I chose it because we already know how to convert it. It will be hard to coordinate it with everyone, but Jon and I may be the only continental Americans on the call, so we might have to suck it up and take the call at a crazy hour. Sorry Jon.
Just click the link, and choose which times work for you. Click on the accordion fold in the poll to see ALL the date and time options.
I hope to phone chat with you all soon!
By the way, my skype is greenmonstah88. Feel free to add me, and contact me about whatever.
