4th European Social Forum-Athens May 2006
The 4th European Social Forum will be taking place in Athens-Greece on the 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th of May 2006.
The
European Social Forum is, alongside Genoa and Seattle, one of the major
events of the movement against neoliberal globalization and war,
deregulation of labor and poverty, climate change and environmental
destruction, violation of democratic rights and sexism, racism and the
threat of the far right. Tens of thousands of activists participated in
the first, second and third European Social Forums which took place in
Florence (2002), Paris (2003) and London (2004).
The same will happen in May 2006: thousands of activists from all around Europe will meet in Athens in order to discuss about the perspectives of "the movement of the movements", exchange their experiences from their struggle and organize coordination and solidarity networks.
We have marched together against the G8, the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank in Prague, in Genoa, in Evian. We took part, all together, in the siege of the European Union Summits in Thessalonica, Nice, Seville, Brussels. We met during the huge antiwar rallies on the 15th of February 2003, in the mass demonstrations against racism, in working class mobilizations defending pensions, public health and education, in rallies against the destruction of the environment, the "anti"terrorist laws and repression.
Today we are more
confident that another world is possible, where people will be before
profit.We hope to see you all in Athens in May 2006, at the 4th
European Social Forum.
