Events and Membership
Prospero organises and hosts themed events. In 2009, these included an Evening with Palfest, showcasing the Palestine Festival of Literature; Protection of the world's Rainforests with presentations by outstanding conservation charities and Fragile States, with presentations by NGOs working in Iraq, Burma and Zimbabwe.
"I attended the Palfest fundraising evening organised by Prospero in Autumn 2009 and was hugely impressed both by the event and by the work of Palfest. I was so inspired that I subsequently sent a long e-mail to the organisers asking to participate in the next festival, and I am delighted to say that I was accepted for the 2010 Palfest. It strikes me as a unique event, doing extremely valuable work in a place of terrible injustice and hardship, and I am both proud and grateful to have the opportunity to participate."

We also hold film screenings to show the findings of our field trips to international projects. These have included a range of street child projects in South Africa, Mozambique, Zambia, Zimbabwe and Kenya, and a screening of our film 'Prospero in India'.

Forthcoming Events
March 2010: Women in Conservation
Prospero World is organising this event for the international conservation charity Fauna and Flora International to highlight the integral but often underestimated role that women play in conservation and how it is women in developing countries who are often most keenly affected by conservation issues. The evening will bring together a group of women who are leaders in their field to learn about their unique personal perspectives and individual work.
May 2010: Theatre and Social Change
Prospero World will host a evening bringing to life the technique of interactive theatre and showing how this dynamic social tool can help to trigger long lasting changes in communities on a range of issues from HIV/AIDs to post-Emergency recovery.
