Dr. Vandana Shiva Coming to Calgary

You should not miss a chance to hear Dr. Vandana Shiva speak at the University of Calgary on March 9th.  I’ve heard her speak at Terra Mare twice and at Slow Food Nation in San Francisco and was blown away.  She has so much courage and conviction you’ll be saying ‘Did she really just say that?’ and then applaud her for doing it!  She’ll be in town to receive the 2011 Calgary Peace Prize on March 9th and 10th and there are a couple events that she’ll be at.  I guarantee her talk will change the way you look at the world and inspire you to look for ways to create your own change.  For more information and tickets go to the University of Calgary Peace Studies website.
