I agree with Sarah, I think that if it is necessary to be aware of the
environmental impact of all our actions, including travel, in my personal
experience, as a woman living in Latin America, it has been a fabulous
experience to know other forms. . think and see how the different actors of
the community act and live their realities from their environment, when the
conference was in Mexico, it was also great to be able to support the
organization and meet our teachers and genius heroes.

However, aware of this, we thought that the next ICLC would be very
difficult and unconscious to attend, even if all the money was available.

I think we could work so that the conference is very accessible from a
distance, that the conferences are transmitted and even that they can
participate in the same remote way, but they deprive people of making an
effort once or twice to attend and speak, to Touch, have lunch and share
with distant but beloved people at a distance, if it would be to lose an
important part for the community.

We could create measures about flying 1 time and another 2 can not.
Including helping with support those who wish to go and have never been to
the ICLC.

Well, they are just some ideas.
