Bloggin it Up!

Today at BlogHer 2010 in NYC, just did my first presentation in the P&G Living Room, wow, it is so busy here! I also met an amazing woman named Alie Eleveld from Kenya that runs SWAP, a safe water & aids project. It is totally abuzz here, women are connecting everywhere, I feel aloft with the energy.

ok, so I am packing for a week in NYC to present at BlogHer 2010 about my work around access to clean water last summer in Africa and India. Then I will be going straight on to Haiti to document what is happening there with the world water crisis, access to clean water and the state of people's lives in accordance with these issues.

After the photo exhibit from last summer's work titled "Waves of Change" rolled out in June, I was contacted and then contracted by Changents and P&G to present in NYC, blog about my experience as a frontline worker in this field, and then go to Kenya to document the work that CDSW's Dr Greg Algood is doing with partners like the Agha Khan Foundation and others in Kenya.

I am excited to be working in ways that I only dreamed about a few years ago, and that I am able to work in a meaningful way. Meeting many of the people that I have and will be working with is such an amazing experience.

I will also be writing for "Water Dispatches" at the Calgary Herald, and when I can squeezing in a blog entry or two here.
