    Dear Pierre,
    We are preparing a big event in Uppsala related to the World Strike for the
    Climate on 24 May 2019. Unfortunately Sandra is not active at this point in
    time for health reasons, but the Climate Strike Movement inspired by Greta
    Thunberg has continued and grown since we met at the virtual space you
    created for us as an extended world social forum in 30 November 2018.
    At our meeting last night of the local organizing group I proposed to
    include the alluded event as an activity of the extended wsf. In this
    respect, let me ask you to please:
    (1) briefly explain to the local organizing group what is the "Extended
    WSF" and its potential audience at: klimatstrejkuppsala@...
    (2) suggest the logistic ways to proceed: (1) previous, (2) during (real
    time) and (3) after the event - whose final program is almost ready and
    will be forward to you asap.
    A final comment, the local organizing group of the Climate Strike Movement
    in Uppsala - where Friends of the Earth - Uppsala is engaged (with the
    motto of: Environmental and Climate Justice) - being Friends of the
    Earth-International a vital member of the WSF Process - is in my eyes the
    best we have had in Uppsala since the Uppsala Social Forum.
    Waiting for your kind reply and eventual support.
    Fraternalmente
    Azril
