usaandwsf activities placed in dynex1wsf
WSF is a process started en 2000, 18 years old, regulated by a charter of principles that some of you may knowhttp://openfsm.net/projects/ic-methodology/charter-fsm-wsf-en
- First article reads" The world social forum process is an open meeting place for reflective thinking, democratic debate of ideas, formulation of proposals, free exchange of experiences and interlinking for effective action, by groups and movements of civil society that are opposed to neoliberalism and to domination of the world by capital and any form of imperialism, and are committed to building a planetary society directed towards fruitful relationships among Humankind and between it and the Earth".
So there is a clear and broad ideological positionning of this forum
Social forum process as defined in this charter can take the form of :
- 1/ "events" gathering of CSOs in a certain time and place - here is a calendar of such events : http://openfsm.net/projects/wsf2012-support/wsf2018-calendar
- 2/ a network of cross remote participation of local partiicpants in activities/meetings taking place in other local places - nobody travelling this is the WSF extension dynamics format with a first occurence Dynex1WSF : http://openfsm.net/projects/dynex1-fsmwsf
This USA & Dynex1WSF welcome circle (on skype and whatsapp room) and this USA and WSF editing space in www.openfsm.net are a place where to have mutual info about those two ways of participation
Welcome cricle is not a discussion forum
Focused thematic /topic discussions can take place in numbered chat rooms that are associated to local meetings taking place in USA ( placed as activities in Dynex1WSF by US CSOs feeling they are part of this WSFprocess) or anywhere else
- list of placed activities so far http://openfsm.net/projects/dynex1-fsmwsf/dynex1fsmwsf-chrono-list-activ
Why participate? it is not about selling anything , nor are you committing to anything coming in this welcome circle, it is just relevant, if you are truly interested by this world social forum process interlinking CSOs
- 1/ there is the benefit of meeting like minded persons who think another world is possible and act accordingly
- 2/ extension dynamics is a zero budget form of implementation of wsf , if you want to go to the face to face event you need to find the corresponding ressources , if you want to participate remotely it is costless ( except internet connection)
- 3/ the gains are networking , new ideas , new contacts, new alliances and cooperation between organizations towards actions projects struggles etc directed to transition towards another possible world
