"YOUTH PIPELINE" - MTFJ Response October 2011

NATIONAL FORUM [Investing in our Young People, 03-04 August 2011]

A sensational Transitions hui was held in Palmerston North! Feedback received from Mayors and participants (and there's been plenty!) is that it was great value for money and one of the best gatherings ever – from the caliber of presenters, the workshops content and relevance, the bus tours to the amazing venues, the hospitality and kai, and the turnout of Transitions professionals. In the words of one of the Keynote Speakers, "We were very grateful for the warm reception and care we received at your conference and were delighted to contribute."
