On July 21st, farmers, workers, indigenous peoples, migrants, women, youth, and other groups from over 14 countries will kick-off the Days of Action for Development Justice with simultaneous events including teach-ins; public forums; media briefings; and the global launch of the video-graphic “The Road to Development Justice”.
This will be followed by more Days of Action that would:
- Spotlight local and national campaigns or grassroots struggles demonstrating the peoples’ demand for development justice
- Mobilize international solidarity support for these local and national campaigns and struggles
- Link particular peoples demands and the call for development justice around international political moments or convergences (e.g. International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples; International Youth Day; World Food Day; International Human Rights Day; and so on)
On September 24, we will hold simultaneous People’s General Assemblies for Development Justice in various countries.
Let the world’s elites know that we will not allow them to go on enriching themselves in the name of “sustainable development”.
Let us reclaim the world and the future. Let us claim development justice!
