Conference
Tragedy and Opportunity:
Long-term development
in post-disaster communities

Description
Who: Anyone interested in long-term post-disaster development
When: May
21, 22 and 23, 2010
Where:  Divina Providencia, Francisco Morazan, Honduras
What to bring: Your ideas, strategies, experiences and stories

This conference will bring together victims and NGOs working in the wake of Tropical Storm Ida (El Salvador) with victims and NGOs in Honduras eleven years after Hurricane Mitch to share ideas and strategies in order to create a community with long-term social health.

The theme of this conference is long-term community development in the wake of a disaster.  First, we want to offer Salvadoran NGOs and community leaders the opportunity to learn from and share their experiences with leaders and NGOs who have already been through the process.  Second, we want to offer Honduran NGOs and leaders an opportunity to reflect on their work over the last eleven years.  Finally, as directors, Beth and I want to learn from this unique event lessons and experiences we can share with other academics, NGOs and victims/leaders especially in Haiti.  This conference is a chance to remember, share, learn, and motivate our compatriots in other parts of Central America.
