Reynold Feldman informs:

And now, Brothers and Sisters, it's time for what American primetime TV likes to call "the all-new" 3rd International Vittachi Conference on "Rethinking Educational Change."  It will be held in a new American-style university in Ifrane, Morocco, near the historic city of Fez this July 2-5 with most likely an extra day for post-conference workshops on July 6.  The plan is to have 200 conferees, half from Morocco--the rest from around the world.  If you haven't experienced a Vittachi conference, where Subud and the world meet on the all-important issues of education, transformation, and the possibility of a human future, where usually 60% are young people and 10 to 20 percent are Subud members, maybe this is your year to do so...

SYAI Co-Chair Rhyana Blakeley writes about her experiences of this New Year’s Snow camp in Switzerland and how the yearly event is a great model for the direction of other potential Subud Youth events:

I always find it hard to put a wonderful experience into words; it is like trying to describe eating chocolate to someone who has never tried it before. Ten years ago I went with my father to a snow camp. It was a wonderful experience for an unopened shy 16 year old, and has always stayed with me. One of the things that struck me was that there seemed almost a family of regulars from all over Europe who always met up at the snow camp. I knew many teenagers at the time (now they are in their late 20s) who made a strong friendship at these camps reaching from Israel to France, and had a pact to meet there every year. The camp was so important to these friends that the year I went it was organised by a group of them.                    Fast forwarding ten years and I had a chance to return, this time to a new location, Flumserberge. When I arrived in the Swiss town I took a bus that went up, and up and up a steep hill through crisp white snow. I then staggered with my overly full suitcase to the warm snug hotel. After a warm welcome I found I was sharing a lovely little room with my dear friend Rachael. And so began a lovely week.........
