related to WE LEARN Conference
   Open Invitation to Join a WE LEARN Sponsored Discussion
Women continue to be separated by culture, language, literacy,
geography; our differences are profound. The daily lives of women in
adult basic/literacy education remain especially complex due to
inequities based on race, class, gender, and other diversities.  WE
LEARN 5th Annual (Net)Working Gathering & Conference on Women &
Literacy  will explore the differences that divide women and look to
ways of building alliances across those differences. 
 In the spirit of building alliances and networking opportunities, WE
LEARN invites everyone to participate in the key conference themes
through discussion & information sharing forums  offered by two key
collaborators: NIFL Poverty, Race, Women and Literacy Listserv and
Adult Literacy Education Wiki.
 We offer these opportunities in order to experiment with a format
for integrating technology (distance learning) into the WE LEARN
conference and into our general networking goals for WE LEARN as an
organization.
 We encourage you to join the conference discussions -- Building
Alliances [Discussing Diversity and Power Issues].  For more details
