Cohousing-L Mailing List: FW: [SpectrumCoops] Conference Invitation: Spectrum Communities - Multinational Housing Cooperatives in Israel, at Neveh Shalom / Wahat al-Salam, May 24th, 2003

[Grace Horowitz (grace]

I'm sending this in the hope that there may be some people on the cohousing
listserve living in Israel/Palestine who may be interested in attending this
conference or who may forward this message to others. There is a small but
growing movement for integrated housing in Israel, which, as some of you may
know, is quite rare.

Become Part of an Exciting New Integrated Housing Solution!

Over the past year, Spectrum Communities has been laying the
groundwork for new options for housing in Israel.
Over the coming years the group plans to establish a number
of communities that will offer housing equally to all
people.  Participants in the conference will have an
opportunity to learn about the plans and discuss the issues
with the Spectrum Steering Committee and experts in:
- Integrated housing ­ conflicts and resolutions
- Community relations
- Planning & Zoning
- Legal and Political Challenges
- Education

Participatory workshops will be conducted that will help
establish standing sub-committees of Spectrum Communities.
Interested workshop participants may sign up to join the
Spectrum sub-committees at the conclusion of the conference.

Don't miss this opportunity to become part of history!
