The annual Community Research Network conference, sponsored by the Loka Institute, was held from October 16 -19, 2003 at The Audubon Center of the North Woods in Sandstone, Minnesota. Our theme was "Powerful Collaborations: Building a Movement for Social Change." There were incredible community based performances, art, music and site visits. There will be information about how to obtain the conference report and related follow-up activities posted on the Conference page in early 2004. To get the latest information about reports and updates, join the CRN mailing list. Information about joining the list is on the CRN List Page.
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. Our goal is for all participants to leave the conference with concrete strategies for contributing to this movement. For information on future conferences and events related to Community Based Research join the CRN list-serve.
