Report of First International Congress of Sociodrama

[Manuela Maciel]

Dear Linda

 

We don`t have dates yet for the next conference. Maybe in 2 years?

This will be decided by the Sweden/Finland Organizing Committee of the II
Sociodrama Congress.

Lets wait for their decision.

 

Warmly

Manuela
