Attended by approximately 100 persons representing 12 different diaconal communities of various denominations from North and South America, the Caribbean and Australia.

The conference focused on the contrast between abundant life for all that Jesus proclaimed (John 10:10) and the globalization that continues to exclude and enslave keeping some people under the table while those in power enjoy the food and power around the table.
