Today, technology, knowledge, and resources permit large numbers of people to explore the furthest corners of the globe: the Libyan desert, Tuva, the Mongolian steppes, the Amazon rainforests, Antarctica, and even into the final frontier, outer space.  How are these journeys affecting our world, each other, and ourselves?

Join us for a discussion on the impact of globalization on world travel.

Participating is especially significant to me as I was one of the founding members of the organization 30 years ago, when women were still at the back of the bus and the feminist movement was but a twinkle in our eyes.
