THIS WEEK:
Our VI Latin America and the Caribbean Regional Conference convened in El Salvador. 

Shared Partnership:
Our 6th Latin America and the Caribbean Regional Conference is just another example of how IPM’s unique model of partnership is making a difference in people’s lives.

23 delegates & guests, from 7 countries gathered in San Salvador, El Salvador.
We came together to strengthen IPM Project Partner relationships and work in solidarity on issues that challenge our communities including:  

The impact of global climate change
Human trafficking and migration 
The Landless Movement in Brasil
Response to environmental degradation
Brasil's political struggles

 

We need your support to continue our work around the world!
Dr Ricardo Navarro, Director of CESTA-Amigos de la Tierra, presented on Climate Change to IPM Project Partners.
 
He explained the impact of global climate change to the delegates & guests at ‪#IPM's ‪#VILACRC, on April 12, 2016.
Global Awareness: 
To continue offering opportunities like these we need your help more than ever.
Gathering everyone together from 7 countries has strained the resources of IPM. 
Dr. Jaime Rivas Castillo, Universidad Don Bosco, presented on migration & human trafficking in the context of El Salvador.
