    Good evening everyone...

    I want to thank Daniel Ramus of Afriendlyhand in York
    Harbor, Maine for organizing the Panel on the Honduran
    Perspective at the Conference on Honduras 2007 (
    http://www.projecthonduras.com/conference ). Dan came
    up with the idea a few months ago of gathering
    Hondurans from various sectors of Honduran society and
    having them give their perspective on some of the
    major problems that Honduras faces.

    The overall theme of this panel will be, "Insights on
    the kind of support programs that make an immediate
    difference in the lives of Hondurans and those that
    have relatively little impact."

    This will be the opening panel for the conference. It
    will commence at just after 8 o'clock on Thursday (Oct
    11) morning. The speakers and topics will be as
    follows:

    8:20-8:35 am / Maria Elena Pleitéz de Paz (Trabajo
    Social/Social Worker)
    > Las necesides básicas de la niñez en el área
    rural/The basic needs of children in rural areas.

    8:40-8:55 am / Rosa Maria Hernández (Dasonoma
    Forestral/Specialist in Forestry Law)
    > La destrucción del media ambiente y el impacto en
    la niñez/The destruction of the
    environment and the impact on children.

    9:00-9-15 am / Doris Lily Gutiérrez (Enfermera/Nurse)
    > La problemática de la salud y falta de agua y su
    impacto en las comunidades/The
    relationship between poor health and lack of water,
    and its impact on communities.

    9:20-9:35 am / Merlín Omar Díaz Paz (Maestro de
    Educación Primaria/Primary School Teacher)
    > Problemas de la deserción escolar y necesidades
    de las escuelas rurales/The problem of
    school dropouts and the needs of rural schools.

    9:40-9:55 am / Ramón Lelis Díaz Turcios (Inspector de
    Zonas Cafetaleras/Inspector of Coffee
    Farming Zones)
    > La problemática por la falta de apoyo a los
    pequeños cafetaleros y su impacto en la
    niñez/The problems created due to a lack of support
    for small coffee farmers, and the impact on
    children.

    This will be the first time we've tried something like
    this at a Conference on Honduras. In hindsight, I wish
    we would have done it sooner. Seems like a great idea
    to first LISTEN to what Hondurans have to say. Even if
    we just think of it in a symbolic way, it's incredibly
    important, given that most of us our guests in
    Honduras.

    Thanks,
    Marco
