Testimonials
“The Conference was a phenomenal success – thanks in large part to
your inspired leadership and facilitation…I wanted to pass along my personal
thanks, as well as express the formal appreciation of our Board and staff, for
your contribution to the success of the conference and also to the Sustainable
Cities: PLUS Network. The success is reflected not only by conventional
indicators that have to do with the acquiring of knowledge and networking
opportunities, but also by the profoundly moving personal insights and
relationships experienced by the participants. Terms such as “magical” and
“transforming” speak to the dimension that was added by including the creative
artists and youth within the daily program.”
