. Haiti Infor­ma­tion Project founder and award win­ning doc­u­men­tar­ian Kevin Pina fol­lowed with a rous­ing talk; the day prior he pre­sented his most recent film “Haiti: We Must Kill the Ban­dits” fol­low­ing the conference’s open­ing panel.

Jour­nal­ists, stu­dents and other atten­dees, some who had flown from across North Amer­ica, were fas­ci­nated to learn about Haiti and Wadner’s life as a young jour­nal­ist strug­gling to cover poverty and grass­roots orga­ni­za­tions in his coun­try. In the days prior to the con­fer­ence, Dr. Peter Phillips of Sonoma Uni­ver­sity invited Wad­ner to pro­vide talks at two dif­fer­ent uni­ver­sity lec­ture hall courses fol­lowed by ques­tions and answers.
