The purpose of this project is to assess the various forms that community gardening can have towards programming for food security initiatives, and determine what is currently happening in the City of Peterborough. The main question to be answered within this project is defining what the current food security projects need regularly and match these with attempts that are being made in community gardens to grow extra food for security initiatives.

KWIC's Guide to Global Education Activities in the Peterborough Area: Edition 2000 was the central part of a student placement project of the Trent Centre for Community Based Education and the Kawartha World Issues Centre (KWIC). This booklet includes a listing of organizations which are involved with global education activities in Peterborough and short descriptions of their initiatives.

This project is the result of a two-day workshop for people engaged in various forms of social activism. The workshop was designed with the purpose to familiarize participants with the principles of anti-oppression education, to train them to facilitate anti-oppression workshops, and to discuss and brainstorm strategies for incorporating anti-racism into everyday life and activism.
