The Northwest Development
Education Association held its
annual general meeting in the
Terrace library basement last
Wednesday ‘evening. . The
NWDEA is a non-profit society
dedicated to a better under-
standing of the world around us.

Their chief purpose is to present *

development issues that face the
Third World. Their primary

2

method is to draw comparisons —

between the experiences of those
in developing nations and those
-of northwestern British Colum-
bians.
- : The NWDEA promotes its
" message of. understanding chief-
ly through touring speaking
from developing nations. They
have assisted in the Tools for
Peace campaign and African
famine relief. The NWDEA has
also sponsored plays on health
care and disarmament. Their
newsletter Northwest Perspec-
‘tives is widely circulated
throughout the region. The
' group is active in Terrace,
Kitimat, Smithers, Hazelton,
Masset and Queen Charlotte
City, °°. .
This year two local students,
Forest Richards and Keith

Geier, were sponsored by the.

NWDEA for the Canada World

Youth exchange program. After

completing the Canadian stint of
their trip, Forest will be heading
to Indonesia and Keith will be
going to Costa Rica.

One of the primary goals for
the year ahead which was
discussed at the NWDEA
meeting is to raise more aware-
ness of development issues
among local students by spon-
soring more events at local
schools. Funding is in the works
to allow a group of local
students and teachers to attend a
conferénce in Vancouver with a
group of African students
belonging to the African Na-
tional Congress (ANC) that is
being held inthe spring.
