Dear Members and Friends,
Warm greetings from the GAATW International Secretariat (GAATW-IS) and our best wishes for a positive, energetic and colourful new year!
This is our first e-Bulletin issue this year and we would like to take the opportunity to share with you our plans and projects for 2007.
As you know, we ended 2006 with a staff retreat in Pattaya, which was truly a rewarding experience. Many of the staff was new in 2006 and this was an opportunity to strengthen the team as well as to plan for 2007. After the New Year’s holiday the team started with optimism and strength of mind. We are looking forward to carrying out the numerous projects planned in support of and with the support of the Alliance and we sincerely hope that this year will be as fruitful and positive as 2006 has been!
Time has passed swiftly as we are now almost at the end of the GAATW 2005-2007 Programme. Many of the activities at the GAATW-IS this year will be dedicated to the preparation for the International Member’s Congress, and we are looking forward to seeing as many of you as possible in October 2007!!
