日程安排:
1:00 - Begin seating - we will start sharply at 1:30, with no delays

1:30-2:00 - Dr. John Stix (http://www.eps.mcgill.ca/index.php?id=0&url=./People/faculty/index.php&faculty=stix) will speak about the natural history of this earthquake, how it happened, what happened, etc.

2:00-2:40 - Keynote speech: current reality on the ground, by a representative of Tzuchi (www.tzuchi.ca) with original footage from Sichuan, how donated money is being used, etc.

2:40-3:00 - break, playing of videos, ask for donations. All money goes to Tzuchi.

3:00-4:20 -
Dr. Kuhonta (http://www.cceia.org/people/data/erik_kuhonta.html) ,
Dr. Noumoff (http://www.mcgill.ca/reporter/39/11/pov/) , (http://people.mcgill.ca/sam.noumoff/) ,
Dr. Vankeerberghen (http://www.mcgill.ca/history/faculty/faculty/vankeerberghen/) ,
Dr. Button (http://people.mcgill.ca/peter.button/)

The politico-socio circumstances: Dr. Noumoff will speak first, about China's overall reaction and the earthquake's likely consequences (esp. since the Olympics are coming up), then Dr. Kuhonta will compare what is happening in China to what is happening in Myanmar. This will be followed by Dr. Button, speaking about the Western media coverage of this disaster and its complex aftermath, and finally Dr. Vankeerberghen will put the situation in historical context. There will be 10 minutes of speaking time each, with 15 minutes to Dr. Kuhonta (because of Myanmar), and the rest of the time in a panel discussion and questions from the audience.

4:20-5:00 - Dr. Chirgwin (http://www.medicine.mcgill.ca/familymed/international_committee.htm), and likely others from medicine: the medical realities facing such humanitarian disasters. What is most needed most urgently, and what are the emergencies that will crop up soon in the future? Are people likely to get what they need? What happens to the health of the region in the long term?

5:00-5:30 - We will discuss how will the passion and the donations now happening around the world help China? Several youth leaders around Montreal who have organize fundraisers and other charity work will be here to talk about what obstacles they've faced, and what change they hope to produce. It has actually been the biggest response I've ever seen... pretty overwhelming. But what exactly are we achieving in the world? Dr. Kuhonta will be invaluable here - in the absence of such a response, what will happen in Myanmar?
