Here's our menu:

• Join the Women’s Global Roundtable. Register here.
• Invite 3-5 friends to your home for dinner either before or after the conference call on Tuesdays at 8:00 PM/EST. To reduce work on yourself, have everyone bring a dish to share. For fun, try recipes from the country of the speaker. Google: recipes, (name of country). You’ll have thousands to choose from.
• Email your friends the link to the Women’s Global Roundtable, http://crkl-3.co.uk/content/en/listen/wgr so they can get excited about the series.
• Have someone do some basic research on women’s issues in that country to share during the meal.
• Dial in at least 5 minutes before the call.
• When the call is in process, if possible, place your phone on mute to reduce background noise. Remember to un-mute when you ask a question during the question/answer period.
• After the call, debrief with your friends and discuss any follow up action you may choose.

Some tips for the call:

Have a telephone, cell phone or blackberry with speakerphone capability so that all will be able to hear the speaker. Test out the speakerphone function in advance if you haven't used it before. Please remember to mute during the call except when you are asking a question.

OR

You can use your computer speaker for the call through a web-based service called Skype. To make a call to our conference line through Skype, you will need to make the minimum payment of $10.00 via the Skype website, www.skype.com. This payment provides hours of calling time at very low rates to anywhere in the world. Once you have signed up, go to “Add” then, “Add your number as a Skype Out contact.” Click “United States” and add the conference number, which will be emailed to you upon registration. Test out Skype a few days in advance by calling your home phone or cell phone.

Bon appetit and happy listening!
