9:07 PM EDT on September 12, 2007

This event will have mixing, discussion corners, and fun & games. Learn more about local, national, and international planning issues, make new contacts, and get involved with Planners Network or other local organizations.

At 8 o'clock, there will be short presentations by special guests

    • Youth Ministries for Peace and Justice: Community development and participatory planning in the Bronx
    • The Young Planners Network: High school students using planning to change communities
    • Reportback from the US Social Forum in Atlanta
