EVU Talks 2007 - 'The veggie answer to world hunger'.

Comments and ideas from individuals and organisations interested in the topic are very welcome

Dear friends and colleagues,

the European Vegetarian Union, an umbrella for European vegetarian organizations in Europe, is preparing the EVU Talks 2007 and would like to hear your opinion about the topic.

Taking into consideration that this year's harvests in many regions failed and that even the FAO admits that change is called for because of the damage livestock creates for the environment, we want to discuss the dramatic issue of global hunger and how vegetarianism can help in alleviating the problem.

For this meeting we would like to hear ideas, comments and remarks and we are asking for your support. Please send us your texts so that we can collect views from many regions, print them out and hand them over to the audience consisting of leaders and representatives of some of the most important vegetarian organizations in Europe. Don't forget to add your exact contact details, please.

Of course, messages of support for our project are also very welcome!

I am sending you my best wishes for 2007 and thank you in advance for your interest and cooperation.

Herma Caelen
Vice President
European Vegetarian Union
