Venezuela Hosts World Social
Forum
Organizers of the 6th World and
2nd Americas Social Forums,
January 24-29, have planned over
250 Caracas venues to develop
their extensive cultural
program.
Nearly 100,000 representatives
from worker, intellectual and
social organizations worldwide
are attended the event,
conceived as a space for
discussion of ideas, reflection,
proposal-making and exchange of
experience against neoliberalism.
This edition will focus on
“Power, Policy and Social
Emancipation Struggles,”
“Imperial Strategies and
People´s Resistances.”
“Resources and Rights for Life:
Alternatives against the
Predator Model.”
In addition, “Diversities,
Identities and World-views in
Motion,” “Work, Exploitation and
Life Reproduction,”
“Communication, Cultures and
Education: Dynamics and
Democratizing Alternatives” will
feed discussion.
The organizing committee
announced the meeting, with a
broad agenda including over 200
cultural events, will show a
variety of cultures and have
Spanish, English, French and
Portuguese as official
languages.
On this occasion, the WSF 2006
is featured by a polycentric
character as it has venues in
Bamako, Mali, on January 19-23
and in Karachi, Pakistan, in
March.
