[Imc-africa] World Social Forum

[Glenda Loebell]

Hello Larisa
My name is Glenda and I live in Switzerland and am
part of the European Coalition-which is engaged in
setting up a European wide campaign looking at hate
crimes, human rights violations etc. We have in our
working group representatives from Russia and we all
meet in the 1st week end in Holland. I can take your
details with me and check out what your local groups
have in the way of support. I can explore what your
options are by passing on your details.
Please let me know if you would like me to do this?

Please be sure to give me an answer at least a week
before.
Warm regards
Glenda
