Hmm I like that it would give me an excuse to go to Norway, but the itinerary kind of seems like it would just be pointing things out to me that I already know? I don't need to see any more horribly graphic images of animal abuse, I'm already convinced. So I don't know.

this gathering has nothing to do with what you just said
it's a gathering 'for activists, by activists'
it assumes that everyone is already vegan and then provides space to share ideas on how to be pro-active in defending our mother earth and its inhabitants

[aleadfeather]

okay, i guess i just got that idea from "exposing the irish fur industry" and such

[ryansmithxvx]

yeah i can't speak on that topic, but look at the others
history of government repression against AR in america
security culture
how to research animal abusing companies
successes and victories of animal rights in brazil
how to do open rescues

it's a lot of practical stuff on learning from others

Thanks for posting about this, it looks like a good conference. I might come along for the weekend part (no way I can get time off work for the whole conference).

How long will you be in Europe for?
