<Hamilton FreeSkool!> Opportunities for Collaboration

[aly ostrowski]

Hey FreeSkool Facilitators!

I am planning to come to Hamilton next week and was wondering if I can meet
with one, some or all of you to discuss the possibilities for collaboration.
 I'm currently interning with a kick ass organization called "Interchange"
which works to promote a Culture of Peace in Toronto.  Interchange is
involved with a number of things including a series of workshops on peace
that we facilitate for high school students in Toronto.  I am currently
working to adopt these for elementary schools in the area. We also offer one
time 3 hour workshops on anything related to peace.  Having been involved
with Free Skool (helped to co-found it years ago), I know that the course
facilitators are extremely skilled and offer excellent classes throughout
the Hamilton community.  Given that these 'guides' put a lot of time and
energy into developing their classes, I thought I could entice some of these
facilitators to offer a condensed version of their class either here in
Toronto or in Hamilton.  This way, their work could extend into another city
and reach a wider audience.  We could be responsible for publicity and
finding a venue and ideally, offer some sort of financial compensation for
their 'work'.  Alternatively, or in addition, we could publicize your
workshops through our list serves and website -
www.interchange4peace.org/ You're welcome to check it out!

There is a formal call out for workshop facilitators, but at this point, I
only have the hard copy version.  When I get access to the file, I would be
happy to send it your way.  What do you think?  Is this something you would
be interested in?

Thanks for your time.  I look forward to hearing from you, and thank you,
for all the important work you're doing!

In peace,
aly
