Transition featuring in Bioneers Conference in Findhorn

Transition is going to feature prominently at the Bioneers 2010 conference in Findhorn, starting on 30-Oct.

In various roles - presenting, training, facilitating, discussing - roles will be:

• Naresh Giangrande (co-founded Transition Town Totnes with Rob Hopkins; co-founded Transition Training)
• Sophy Banks (co-founder of Transition Training; facilitated the Heart & Soul group in Totnes and is helping it replicate in initiatives everywhere) - tbc
• May East (a Findhorn villager, and in addition to her myriad achievements is also bringing a crucial global south perspective to transition)
• Eva Schonveld (co-founder of Transition Portobello in Edinburgh and coordinator of Transition Scotland Support) - tbc
• Carin Schwarz (coordinator of Transition Town Forres)

See the full list of speakers here that includes Vandana Shiva, Maddy Hardland (editor or Permaculture Magazine) and others.  

The rest of the programme looks fascinating, and the Bioneers (look here if you don't know anything about them) have been at the cutting edge of social entreprenuerialism and social redesign, particularly in North America, for quite a while.
