The theme of the conference is Sr Dorothy Stang, a nun from the Notre Dame Order that campaigned to protect the Amazon Rainforest and its people. Tragically by standing up against illegal logging she was assassinated.

Students participating in the conference were invited to research about the life of Sr Dorothy and the global issue of protecting the rainforests. They then suggested questions for the video conference by typing comments below.
