2010 WSF Events List of WSF actions and events for 2010
Know how the WSF is going to be like during 2010 During the year when it celebrates the 10th anniversary of its process, the World Social Forum will not have a single global centralized event. In 2010, the WSF will happen in a permanent way all year-round, with events and activities being held throughout the world. It will be a year in which the attentions of the WSF process will be drawn towards the global crisis, understood in all its aspects – economic, environmental, political, social, cultural, food, civilizatory. The WSF in 2010 aims at accumulating the analyzes, proposals and experiences of the social organizations and movements to face the multiple crises. The convergence space of this accumulation process will be the 2011 Dakar World Social Forum, the next centralized event of the process. After the last IC meeting, held in October, in Montreal, the IC Liaison Group has released the Proposals to connect the 2010 events document. http://www.forumsocialmundial.org.br/noticias_01.php?cd_news=2649&cd_language=2 Among the presented proposals are the creation of a banner that will travel around the world accumulating messages and slogans of every event, the use of a common logo, the production of messages (written, visual, audiovisual, artistic) that express responses to the crises, among others. In its 1st call to the organizers of the 2010 WSF events, the WSF International Council states that “it is crucial for the WSF to collectively develop a process of working in 2010 that it is in synchrony with the rhythm of development of the effects of this crisis and the diverse emerging responses by movements across the globe.”
