Meeting Description:

The Worldwide Forum on Education and Culture welcomes presentations in all
disciplines and on every level of education and business.

The congress will focus on living and learning in the years ahead.  For
example, where will we find ourselves in 10 or 20 years? How do we get ready
for a world we cannot see or even imagine? How can we work together toward a
common purpose and still retain our individuality? 

In addition, what are the practical ways we can prepare students and people
for tomorrow? What do we teach them today and what will they need to know to
face the years ahead? Most of all, Voices of the Future: The Sound of Many
Languages and Nations in Partnership can we do collectively to improve the
quality of life, living and learning throughout the world?

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Indiana University and 
as such can receive donations through the eLinguistics Foundation, 
which is a registered 501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal 
Tax number is 45-4211155. These donations can be offset against 
your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). 
For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial 
advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that 
they will match any gift you make to a non-profit organization. 
Normally this entails your contacting your human resources department 
and sending us a form that the eLinguistics Foundation fills in and 
returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative 
procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without 
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if 
your company operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
