Speaking Engagement

Dear Readers,

          If you live in the Chicago area, I will be participating in a Chicago Public Radio Global Activism Expo on

     -Friday, April 28th from noon - 6 p.m. at the UIC Forum, 725 W. Roosevelt Road, Chicago, IL, 60607

          The expo involves over 100 global activists/organizations working to help make this world a little bit better of a place.  I was also selected to give a brief presentation on my work and the work of COPERMA which will be at 3 pm.  If you are in the area please stop by!

         If you're interested in hearing my interview for the Global Activism segment of WorldView with John McDonnell on Chicago Public Radio, please click the following link:  http://www.wbez.org/episode-segments/global-activism-helping-war-victims-democratic-republic-congo

         This interview is from November 2010 and thus does not include a substantial portion of my experience, but does give glimpse into the conflict and the on-going work of COPERMA.

                                           Thank you for your continuing interest,
                                                                     Amy Ernst
