Each year, WCCN (Wisconsin Coordinating Council on Nicaragua) sponsors delegations to Nicaragua to facilitate people-to-people connections between US residents and Nicaraguans and to build on our ongoing projects. Our June delegations each focus on a different aspect of women's issues. WCCN's "Vital Connections" delegation in June 2000 provided both Nicaraguans and US residents with experiences and insights to enrich lives in both the North and South. It included meetings with groups working against violence and for human rights, as well as cultural activities and the opportunity to experience and appreciate the natural beauty of Nicaragua.

WCCN's women's issues delegations are open to both women and men who are interested in the delegation's goals and activities and are eager to take the opportunity to learn from the Nicaraguans with whom we meet during the delegation. If you are interested in participating in the Summer 2001 women's issues delegation to Nicaragua, contact WCCN and ask for an information packet.
