NGOs & Nonprofits in Tourism and Conservation:  
On-line Conference

Starts: 22 October 2002 , Organised by Planeta.com, Co-sponsored by ECOCLUB.com
This conference will examine the role of non-profits and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in the tourism and conservation cultures. Participants will review how these players interact with business and government. We'd like to discuss the best case examples and those that are not the best. Two of the immediate products of the conference will be an index of ngo / non-profit players and a public archive.
