TALK TITLE: Celebrating an Acadian “Civil Society.”

OVERVIEW: Held every five years since 1994, the World Acadian Congress
(*Congrès
mondial acadien*, or CMA) is an international gathering of Acadian culture.
Its mission is to fortify the ties among Acadian communities around the
world. We’ll examine some of the challenges faced by Acadians to accomplish
this task and look at a small qualitative analysis illustrating the
importance / values the CMA brings to participants.

NOTE: Lunch will be provided. Your kind RSVP by Thursday, February 23rd to
help us confirm catering needs would be appreciated.

Kind thanks, in advance, for your consideration and response.
