we decided
to start with a meeting in Tunis
on Monday 23rd of march at 10:30 am
in order to prepare and coordinate our efforts
(Creation and printing of global square sign, welcome, music and creativity space, dialogue space, principles, ...., Update the website, twitting, preparing flyers, organize streaming, organize first draft of the program, Preparing marks for the campus to indicate location, verify internet connections, ......)
The address is : 2 rue de France, immeuble national. Escalier 3, apt. 321. CP 1000 Tunis, Tunis. It's near the French Embassy on Habib Bourguiba.
The meeting is open to all the people who want to work in a creative and horizontal way as our call says.
Global Square is a SPACE. Research of horizontality, respect for each other, actively fighting against any kind of discrimination, open to everyone, cooperative space, encouraging people to cross-learning, encourage dialogue between organizations and grass roots dynamics, building collective intelligence, having fun
Our squares and streets are homes to our ideas and aspirations, in them we struggle, in them we shout out at injustices, in them we share alternatives and build dreams. Global Square is an open idea and action to create collaborative and inspiring common spaces, in, around and beyond the World Social Forums.
During the World Social Forum 2015 in Tunisia, the ''Global Square '' is open to all those, around the world who are building the necessary change and alternatives. It will be next to the Youth space on the WSF, to acknowledge the contributions of young people to the actual social movements.
This is a collective space to share with different individuals/groups/organizations/assemblies to encourage dialogue, networking, cross learning, spontaneous meetings, music and creativity. There will be permanent spaces or specific activies, and the people involved in the facilitation team would help out to give them visibility.
The program (clearly indicated on a board during the WSF) is permanently open to the organization of assemblies, workshops, creative activities, sharing of knowledge and methodologies, etc. There is also the possibility to participate to this space from anywhere in the world through the internet, an even propose some extended activities from your country!
We would like to encourage those who are interested in this initiative to join us, and to get more information about the backgound, processes and the vision we have putted forward collectively following these links from
