Dear Emilia,
How is everything going? How is your Grundtvig project?
I have a great request. I enclose information about the conference
which we organize in Vilnius in November within our Grundtvig
initiative. Could you please pass it on to people you think might be
interested adult education field, of course. Maybe you would like
to come too? Vilnius is a very beautiful city and there might be a
good occasion to discuss future cooperation and projects. The only
problem is that we don`t have much time for promoting the event as
the deadline for applying to National Agencies is 30th June 2008.
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Maria Schejbal
