Let us be grateful to the people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.
-Marcel Proust
One popular World Forum tradition is to encourage international exchanges by inviting delegates to submit proposals for
World Forum Networking grants.
Pademelon Press and
The Department of Community Services, both in New South Wales, Australia, funded these grants. The purpose of these grants is to bring together delegates from different countries to work on projects of mutual interest.
This time around we have decided to do it a bit differently. We are now inviting all individuals who have ever attended a World Forum or a Working Forum to consider developing a project. Here are the guidelines:
#1. The project must involve at least two past World Forum/Working Forum delegates from different countries.
#2. Project proposals can request from US$500 to US$2500 in funding.
#3. Ideally, delegates will meet in one of the countries to implement the project.
#4. The project must pursue an early childhood topic raised at a World Forum or Working Forum.
#5. Proposals must be submitted by July 15, 2008 and completed in time to be reported on at the
2009 World Forum in May or June, 2009.
To submit a proposal, complete the proposal submission form online at
