The World Social Forum is an ongoing process defined by its charter of principles: Thousands of activities, meetings, discussions,initiatives for another possible world geared toward understanding and action organized by thousands of civil society organizations over the entire planet

Dozens of events forum organized according to guidelines defined by the International Council of the WSF are held annually in differentcountries, forming the WSF calendar

WSF Calendar 2017/18 - Calendario FSM 2017/18 - Calendrier FSM 2017/18

A growing proportion of these events are "extended" , meaning they include activities that are not held into the central location of the eventor activities that are available to groups / individuals who are not in the central location of the event

In addition, thousands of organizations involved in this process may also intercommunicate outside a specific WSF event to develop the contacts made at events or deliberate in networks
