The 2013 NASCO Institute, “A Fire in Our Bellies: Food Justice and Cooperatives,” is now accepting session proposals and suggestions! We are seeking five types of submissions: workshops, panel discussions, skillshares, films, and caucuses/working groups. More information about each kind of session can be found in the 2013 NASCO Institute Session Proposal Form. http://nasco.coop/institute/proposals The deadline to submit proposals is July 18, 2013. Proposals will be evaluated on a rolling basis, so get your proposal in early! Staff are happy to discuss your session proposal ideas; email remy(at)nasco.coop to get in touch. * Presenters receive free registration and partial funding for travel expenses.

We are not able to offer funding to skillshare presenters (unless they are also presenting a workshop or other session).
