AMARC PARTICIPATES AND COVERS THE WORLD SOCIAL FORUM 2008

In 2008, the World Social Forum (WSF) will be a week of action culminating in a Global Day of Mobilisation and Action on 26 January 2008. For the first time, the WSF will be fully decentralised, meaning that every organisation and movement will carry out their own activities where they wish. The overlap with celebration the 60th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) provides an extra opportunity for linkage to draw out central human rights struggles of today and the need for action!

Send us news and audio files of your mobilisations to secretariat@si.amarc.org

AMARC SUPPORTS WSF CALL FOR DAY(S) OF ACTION AND MOBILISATION - JANUARY 26th 2008

We are millions of women and men, organisations, networks, movements, trade unions from all parts of the world, we come from villages, regions, rural zones, urban centres, we are of all ages, peoples, cultures, beliefs, but we are united by the strong conviction that

ANOTHER WORLD IS POSSIBLE!

With all the richness of our plurality and diversity and our alternatives and proposals, we struggle against neo-liberalism, war, colonialism, racism and patriarchy which produce violence, exploitation, exclusion, poverty, hunger and ecological disaster and deprive people of human rights. For many years we have been resisting and constructing innovative processes, new cultures of organization and action from the local to the global, in particular within the processes and Charter of Principle of the World Social Forum from which this call emerges. Aware of the need to set our own agenda and to increase the impact of these thousands of expressions and manifestations, we are committed to strengthening the solidarity and convergence amongst our struggles, campaigns, and constructions of alternatives and alliances. We commit ourselves to a week of action which will culminate in a Global Day of Mobilisation and Action on January 26, 2008. With our diversity which is our strength, we invite all men and women to undertake throughout this week creative actions, activities, events and convergences focusing on the issues and expressed in the ways they choose.
