The Lucknow Sentinel, 1988-04-27, Page 9FWIO selects topic "We've got to get people thinking." "Where does our garbage go after the suitable sites are filled up?" "We're a lazy, wasteful society." "Recycling is the first law of waste management." Such statements and questions as well as Branch resulutions prompted the Federated Women's Institutes of Ontario (FWIO) to select waste management as their project topic for 1988. To focus on this topic, FWIO has oragniz- ed a Leadership Development Conference which will be held at Queen's University, Kingston from May 13 to 15 with the theme being "Educate -Initiate". Attending the conference will be women from across the province who are in- terested in increasing their knw 'pledge and abilities. The object of the conference is two -fold: it will provide the participants with infor- mation about all aspects of waste manage- ment so that they are better informed and responsible citizens; and it will provide participants with the necessary motiva- tion and leadership tools to organize pro- ductive projects. The keynote speaker will be the Hon. James Bradley, Ontario's Minister of the Environment. Other speakers will repre- sent the Recycling Advisory Council, municipal governments and rural organizations services. Workshops will emphasize the techni- ques of fund raising, volunteer manage- ment, program planning, public relations and speaking with confidence. The goal of the Women's Institutes is to educate and motivate women across On- tario who will then promote and initiate projects and programs that address the waste management concerns in their communities.
