Grenoble, France
Dear Colleagues and Friends of CEIMSA,
We hope that you will plan to attend our November 15 International Conference on the topic of “Community Organizing” at The University of Paris-Nanterre, where we intend to present experienced speakers from around the world, who are prepared to discuss their strategic involvements in overcoming obstacles to achieve non-violently political objectives. This conference will include Middle-Eastern, European, and North American, and Asian activists and intellectuals reporting on first-hand experiences in local community organizing, as well as theoretical differences between “Astroturf” democracy and “Grassroots” democracy in places such as the Middle East, Europe and North America, and beyond. . . .
