As part of an exercise in participatory democracy in Venezuela, communities are assuming leadership in conducting environmental conservation projects across the country to deal with the various environmental challenges facing them. Come to IPS for a rare opportunity to hear directly from and discuss with Miguel Rodriguez, Venezuela’s Viceminister of Environmental Conservation, these and other projects and what role the Chavez government is playing in them.

This is a brownbag event so please feel free to bring your lunch.

Please rsvp by sending an email to adwoa@ips-dc.org or calling 202-234-9382.

IPS is between L and M Streets on 16th Street and two blocks from the Farragut North (Red line) and Farragut West (Orange/Blue lines) Metro stations.
