'Table Talks' at Lunch

 

We invite your agency to be one of 12-15 'Table Talk' Hosts, a new more
informal approach to the Forum's lunchtime networking.

'Table Talk' Hosts will give a brief, informal presentation and then answer
questions or lead a discussion. Registrants will select a 'Table Talk' on
the day of the Forum. We would like two of the sessions to be facilitated in
French. 

'Table Talk' Topics - a new program, recent research findings, an agency
update, a new partnership - whatever you like! 

Hosts as of today are: the Ottawa Child/Youth Housing Advocacy Initiative
(OCHAI) on its efforts to commemorate the 20th anniversaries of the UN
Convention on the Rights of the Child and the All Party Commitment to End
Child Poverty by 2000 and the City Housing Branch on the forthcoming City
Housing Strategy Update. 

Read more in the attached Table Talk Letter.

 

Watch for a Program Update within the next weeks with the list of Panelists
and the afternoon Keynote Presenter.

 

Information Table: Partners and agencies are invited to bring materials to
share with participants.
