Dear Friends,

Due to the growing success of eRenlai, we just changed server, and this caused some disruptions. Now, the website runs even more rapidly than before…

As many of you already know, Ricci/Renlai is involved in an international conference on “Cultural Resources for Sustainable Development”, Shanghai, April 25, former President Jacques Chirac being the main speaker.
Full program and registration forms are now online.

Go to our monthly focus and reflect with us on
the meaning of fatherhood. Fathers and children share their memories and their testimonies:

Hubert Kilian just had a baby, he tells us about his experience as a young father. Chao Chin-chih speaks about the joys and sorrows of being a single father.

Being a parent is also being an educator, Bob claims that “
we are all surrogate parents” while Darren Schell tells his experience as a teacher in Taiwan.

Also read and listen to children’s words about their father and Gao Lao’s sweet memories.

In a time of elections (Taiwan, France, the US…), Li-Chun comments the debate between the two presidential candidates in Taiwan:
Air-conditioned Democracy. Bob analyzes the act of voting and Benoit Vermander evokes the issue of citizens’ participation in local development. Another topic, another part of the world: Deforestation in New Zealand by A. Kernaleguen.

And have a fresh look on our homepage where you can now watch
Bob’s and Mei’s video editorials. This is still a trial version, thanks for your comments!
