This January 13-15, a very important conference on international development will take place here in Washington, DC. The International Development Conference (IDC) this year focuses on "The New Face of Development" and will address concerns about worldwide development, global and political realities, ways of alleviating poverty, innovative financing for social development and new technology.
Speakers include World Bank President James Wolfensohn, UNICEF Director and former Peace Corps Director Carol Bellamy, Organization for African Unity Secretary General Salim Salim, and several other world leaders. There will also be dozens of workshops on vital issues and opportunities to connect with just about everyone involved with international development. The conference is held every two years.
To find out more about the conference, please look at the conference web page at http://www.idcnews.com . Also take a look at the newsletter, "Ideas and Information" on that page.
We would like to reach as many people as possible to inform them about this conference. Please forward this those who might be interested (for example universities with international programs, development organizations, ).
Thank you,
Wayne Breslyn
