Dear Julia, Javier, Tamara, Miroslava, Natasha, Alexander, Irina,

This is great that the co-ordination meeting will take place in Kyiv already tommorow, on Tuesday, 10th June. I hope, communication sufferings of Green Dossier will come to the end soon!

At this meeting SVIT will be represented by its general co-ordinator Julia Myasyscheva and Alexander Bagin, head of SVIT member group from Donetsk region, town Gorlivka. Julia made up a nice list of issues for discusson. Here just to reiterate issues, which SVIT would need to know as soon as possible:

1.How much participants, except for prep.team, could be sent by SVIT? 2.What would be daily rate for a participant? Usually, when we invite volunteers for camps they do not pay for meals and accommodation. For this reason SVIT would need to solve this problem for all volunteers recruted through SVIT (Ukrainian and foreign). Would be great if volunteers recruted through SVIT could have some reduction. 3. Communication in the prep.team: This year SVIT organises three camps apart from Ecotopia. All interetsted volunteers send their applications to the special mailing list. Besides, SVIT has a specially dedicated placement officer Olga Kryvenko (SVIT member group from Kryvyi Rig, svit_info@mg.dp.ua)who together with the general co-ordinator shall deal with issues like putting people in special camps, facilitate contacts between volunteers and camp host,logistics and invitations. SUGESTION, maybe reasonable to use the existing SVIT placement list for all communications on Ecotopia preparation. Or, to think on the creation a new one? The most important is that the list will create a space for discussion for all people, involved in preparation of Ecotopia in Ukraine. As far as I understand, the prep team is located in different places (like Kyiv, Artemivs'k, Gorlivka, Kryvyi Rig, others?)

Wish you a very nice meeting.

With all good wishes, Olga Malakhova

P.S.: I plan to be in Kyiv this Friday, on 13th of June. Maybe to have a quick chat? Should I call you?
