WSF in Belem, Brazil - WEF in Davos 2009

-, 26.01.2009 17:06


From January 27 to February 1, the city of Belem, capital of Para, in the Brazilian Amazon region, will host the 9th edition of the World Social Forum (WSF). The anti-globalization event brings together activists from more than 150 countries in a permanent process of mobilization, articulation and search for alternatives for another possible world, free of neoliberal politics.

At the same time, economists and politicians will meet in Davos, Switzerland, to discuss the world economic crisis at the World Economic Forum (WEF). Activists in Geneva are organising a big demonstration in Geneva.

On January 26, 2008, activists protested in Berne, Zurich (Jan. 25) and Davos against the World Economic Forum (WEF). At the same time, groups and Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) organised actions on all five continents for another world as a decentralised World Social Forum (WSF) action day.

US Social Forum: Another World or Another Mistake?

Notwithstanding the radical goals and objectives of the Forums... the media production is led by the same folks who always make media, who always have the channels of access and privelege.

WSF 2007: Reflections on a Foreign Continent

translation: www.wloe.org, 12.03.2007 16:39


I had never been to Africa, and kept asking myself if it made sense to fly to Nairobi for the World Social Forum (WSF, in January 2007). Luckily I finally decided to go, and got two trips in one. The first was to the world of the WSF, which I already knew to some extent. The second was – thanks to new friends I met there – a brief encounter with the reality of Kenya.

The World Social Forum: Space or Movement?

working document for discussion

According to the World Social Forum's (WSF) Charter of Principles, 'The WSF is an open meeting place for reflective thinking, democratic debate of ideas, formulation of proposals, [and the] free exchange of experiences and interlinking for effective action' by groups and individuals opposed to neo-liberalism and imperialism.

Eindruecke vom WSF 2007 in Nairobi

-, 05.02.2007 15:46

Mehr als 60000 TeilnehmerInnen registrierten sich beim Weltsozialforum (WSF) in Nairobi, Kenia. Zum siebten Mal fand das WSF parallel zum Weltwirtschaftsforum in Davos (WEF) statt. Harsche Kritik aufgrund von Ausgrenzung begleitete das WSF, sogar die Abschlußerklärung der Versammlung sozialer Bewegung ging auf zu hohe Preise für Teilnahmegebühren und Essen ein. Selbst das Trinkwasser wurde in Plastikflaschen zum vierfach erhöhten Preis verkauft.
