The Symposium helped to fill a void that exists, commensurate with the need out there, for citizens to become more aware and engaged to connect themselves to solutions that need greater local and global attention.

The Symposium in 2004 was not only a blessing for dozens of globally-minded organizations and responsible businesses to establish contacts and spread messages but also a great experience for supporters of a more equitable, ethical world to gather thoughts, feed off inspiration, and plant seeds. BAIDO would be interested in participating in 2006!

The Sustainable World Symposium gives many people access to the critical information of knowing what needs to be done (personally and collectively) to protect the planet and contribute to social justice.

Very activated community, people knew what's up, revolutionary speakers, no BS. What i most appreciated about the SWS was the level of activation and knowledge of the attendees. Everyone was ready to make changes and share info to analyze and improve the status quo. The speakers were fantastic and overall this event helps keep the creative spark of environmental leaders in our community alive.

Thank you to you and your team for putting together a great first event. The Symposium was a wonderful start to begin addressing sustainability issues in a focused, community-driven way. We look forward to our continued participation and would be interested in being a sponsor next year.

Yes we are interested in participating in in the 2006 Sustainable World Symposium.We enjoyed the last one very much. And our booth was happily swamped for much of the day. Participants were networking like crazy outside the plenary talks and that made me wish I was able to attend. I plan to this next year.   Thank you for the work you are doing!

The first annual Sustainable World Symposium was an impressive gathering of progressive leaders, sustainability campaigners, community organizations, and green businesses -- all focused on building a more vibrant and healthy planet for all. The workshops were engaging, the food was awesome, and the cultural performances were inspiring. I look forward to taking part in the next Symposium!
