Comments: David Wicks provided EECOM 2000 conference participants as well as EECOM Steering Committee members with a clear overview of NAAEE discussions regarding North Amrican dynamics in NAAEE. This presentation formed the basis for both formal and informal discussions about the relationship of Mexican, USA, and Canadian EE organizations and possible impacts to changing existing relationships. Feedback was positive and constructive, with both NAAEE President and EECOM Steering Committee better understanding the issues and the opportunities. Wicks presence at EECOM 2000 also resulted in most participants for the first time hearing about the NAAEE and its continental mandate. Thank you David! Thank you NEEAP/NAAEE!
