WSF 2008: Arci in action

 

146  

 the events organized by Arci in Italy and in the world 

for the Global Day of Action promoted by the World Social Forum

 

Arci is organising 146 events in Italy and the world on the Global Day of
Action promoted by the Wsf. 

 

An incredible effort by the local structures, clubs, and territorial
committees of the largest Italian non profit organisation. 

 

Arci has fully supported the choice of this edition of the 2008 World Social
Forum, not one single Forum in one country, but a myriad of events all over
the world, to give visibility and let the local movements take the lead.
Those same movements that everyday , in their own countries, with their
actions contribute to making another world possible.

 

On the whole world answering the WSF call, millions of people will be the
protagonists of this day, creating, ideally united, an extraordinary event.
Extraordinary are the number of participants, the geographical extension,
and the thematic articulation.

 

Today we can say it is a winning bet, let's look at the numbers: 80
countries in five continents have answered the call of the Forum around 1000
actions scheduled: the whole world in movement.

 

In Italy there are already more than 300 events and of those many are
promoted by Arci, or in which Arci is committed together with other
movements and organizations.
