Day 3 – CTF-Provinces Conference 1 (Bangkok, Thailand)
The 3rd and final day the CTF(Vice)Provinces 1 meeting is now behind us. It was a day during which we accomplished much – a culmination of the previous two days. We began a strategic planning process to promote ongoing collaboration between the CTF and the (Vice)-Provinces – agreeing to several initiatives, putting ideas together for the development of a disaster relief protocol and a statement from the participants. We were also visited by Bishop Joseph of Caritas Thailand who extended his hand in a gesture of collaboration indicating the various works his organization is involved in and ways in which the CTF and Caritas Thailand might collaborate.
