<div><font face="Calibri">The speakers for this event series are all
key players from Civil Society Organizations and from the United
Nations, collectively engaged in planning for a post-Rio+20 future.
The purpose of the workshop series is to lay out the framework for a
road map to plan for a Global Citizens Movement to help us move beyond
the major United Nations Rio+20 conference held earlier this year in
June.</font></div>
<div><font face="Calibri"><br></font></div>
<div><font face="Calibri">In this intensive workshop, the many
dimensions of the UN Conference in Rio de Janeiro will be explored,
and a coherent path forward will be charted.</font></div>
<div><font face="Calibri"><br>
As you may be aware, by most conventional accounts, Rio+20 was at
least a disappointment, if not a failure. We argue that real,
path-breaking, and innovative solutions began to emerge from the
grassroots level out, and we will present many dimensions of these
solutions, as well as strategize a way forward into a more sustainable
future.</font></div>
