February 17th, 2012: Special Fund-raising Evening Event at Alcheringa Gallery

Pacific People’s Partnership is now in the final months of a three year CIDA funded initiative called Papua: Land of Peace, Civil Society Leadership in Conflict Transformation.

To learn more about the importance to this work in Papua, I would like to invite you to attend an intimate event and reception this coming Monday February 20th, 2012 at 7:00 pm at Alcheringa Gallery (665 Fort Street). This will feature Dr. Eben Kirksey, a cultural anthropologist and author from the City University of New York, and PPP will briefly present on projects in the Manokwari region of West Papua. Any and all donations towards this project would be greatly appreciated!

If you are unable attend but would like to give to this project you can donate via a secure on-line portal.

For more information or to RSVP to the event, you can contact Alcheringa or Pacific People's Partnership or call 250-381-4131.

Thank you so much for your support.
