[Air-l] AIR 2007 in Vancouver or else

[Suely Fragoso]

as far as I am aware there have been very  few  Lamericans in AIR - both times I went I found no-one else (nearly - I met a Mexican student in Toronto). I confess that I have been considering to offer to host AoIR here in Brazil at some point, but I think we need to expand AIR's basis in LA first. I am working on that, but imho it is still too early - AIR here would become a 'tourist only' conference, not capable of attracting many locals yet. 

the idea is, however, very nice. 
I would like to hear more from Erick about that - his surname and suggestion indicates that he could be in LAmerica as well, am I right?

Cheers

Sue

i think latin america is on the table, i know that when i was in the  
exec, i mentioned oaxaca and sao paolo as possibilities, we thought  
about the caribbean, but we always have air i sept. and oct. which  
means... hurricane season.  so i wanted to push more southerly.   i  
do not know what is on the current exec's agenda though.   I suspect  
the rotation will be north america next, then europe, mainly because  
north america provides sustaining capital beyond the base operations,  
because we have more members here and thus more people interior to  
this continent.
