WATER IS LIFE! - YPD 2008 Theme
Recognizing the universal significance on water among all the cultures and religions of the world, the YPD (Young People for Development) 2008 Training Session will take a closer look on the issue. Water, being at the heart of the web of life cannot just be overlooked when looking at environment and development. The 2007 Annual YPD Training Session in Cambodia discussed lengthily about climate change and how YPD can do something about it. YPD groups from the world over took the issue up through education, campaigns, projects and activities. For next year, the topic on water will be reflected as a continuation or a broadening on the climate change issue.The session will be held in St. Albans, a suburb in the West of Melbourne, Australia on July 5-10, 2008. In preparation for the event, volunteers have been meeting inter-religious groups, centers for environmental concerns and committed individuals who knows more about the issue.
