World Social Forum - Salvador - 2018

The 13rd world social forum has started in Salvador, Brasil on March 13. About 60,000 people are expected to take part in the hundreds of activities happening simultaneously up to the 17th. We are sharing here our humanity, our certainty that another world is possible since we really desire and work for it. Information can be found on www.wsf2018.org

Today we were shocked with the news of the murder of a young feminist activist in Rio de Janeiro, the whole Forum is paying respects to Marielle Franco. We do not want this to be another crime without  investigation and punishment in Brasil.

World Assembly of Democracies took place on Pituaçu stadium.World Social Forum 2018, Salvador.
 It's a privilege to be here among so many people from all over the world, sharing the same dream of a world that aknowledges and respects the humanity in every single person as well as everybody's right to live with dignity, fraternity and peace. The world is bleeding because of injustice, greed, corruption, racism, war, violence against women and children, poverty, but we do believe a better world is possible, since we want it, since we care.
