Subject: USA Africa Dialogue Series - Wangari Maathai Conference At BrooklynCollege New York, USA On Wednesday March 28th , 2012

You are cordially invited to the Wangari Maathai conference at Brooklyn College on  Wednesday March 28, 2012 - 9:30 am - 3pm.  I would appreciate it if you would please share this flyer with your friends and associates, and encourage them to attend.

 

Wangari Maathai (1940–2011) was a Kenyan environmentalist and the first African woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize for her work with the Green Belt Movement. The movement, a grassroots organization she founded in 1977, teaches Kenyan women how to create and maintain eco-friendly environments in the midst of enormous economic, political and social opposition.  Maathai was considered one of the world's most influential political activists and was a champion of women's rights.
