OCTOBER 16-19, 2003
The Audubon Center of the North Woods
Sandstone, Minnesota

Register now for this year’s Community Research Network (CRN) Conference, sponsored by the Loka Institute. The CRN works for social change through Community Based Research by acknowledging, honoring, accepting and following the voices of all stakeholders, including those historically oppressed.

They welcome presentations, performances, readings, and screenings from community members/ organizations, artists, academics and activists, that include all project voices and are based on your experience with participatory projects. Scholarships are available for low-income attendees.

Join others involved in the Community Based Research movement to share diverse ways of discovering and exposing truths to promote democratic decision-making processes, self-empowerment, and realization of community objectives. Their goal is for all participants to leave the conference with concrete strategies for
contributing to this movement.
