Cultural Encounters and Northern Reflections
The 2012 summit in Finland builds on outcomes and traditions defining the 2009 (UK), 2008 (Taiwan) and 2007 (Hong Kong) summits. A defining feature of WAAE summits is that they include presentations of research; storytelling circles; cultural exchanges; and strategic working groups that articulate plans and policy. These features remain a distinctive part of this WAAE summit.
