Dear Madame President, dear Young BPW,

 

Please find attached the Young BPW Newsletter for November, and I ask you to distribute this mail among all your young members. Please note, that all your input is welcome for the next editions – don’t hesitate to send me in your papers or mails!

 

At the very first something about AWARDS: I do attach again the information about the Young BPW Award.

Please do read this, spread it within your organisation and check which project in your Club or Country that could be sent in. To my knowledge, from whole Europe we do prepare only two projects for this award. But I know very well that we have a lot of interesting initiatives that would fit perfectly into this competition. Please let me encourage you to think about your national or local projects and the benefits. The deadline is NOV 30^th.

 

Next opportunity: Job-Offers in Dublin and Milano offered at Xing/OpenBC – check the attached file if you are interested or know someone who may is.

 

For all of you who are planning to join the 4^th Young BPW International Congress in Seoul next May, please find attached details.

 

And now hopping to the next important event: in September 2007, Young BPW Germany does organize a Symposium in Berlin under the title “Career Future Family”. This Symposium is to show different social systems and political frameworks for families and parents throughout Europe. Of course, lobbying for familiy-friendly AND parents-friendly models is requested! The program offers lectures, workshops and also World Café and Open Space discussions.

 

Young BPW Germany did ask several parties to join such as initiatives of single-parents, of fathers. Working Mothers Unit and Active fathers have already agreed on joining. The german Federal States Minister for Family Affairs, Dr. Ursula von der Leyen, herself mother of seven children, will be the patron. Invited are all European (Young) BPW, mothers and fathers-to-be, young families.

 

Young BPW throughout Europe are cordially invited to join and to participate. And if you would like to help, no matter in what kind, the organizing team does welcome your Email!
