What Is The People's Summit?
The 2nd People's Summit (Quebec city, April 16th to 21st) marks the culmination
of many years of popular organizing throughout the Americas.It will consolidate
the expanding movement confronting corporate led globalization that has emerged
since the 1st People's Summit (Santiago, Chile 1998).
The 2nd People's Summit will create a space and an opportunity for progressive civil
society from north and south, to come together as equals. During the Summit we will
debate, define new strategies for the Americas and create new alliances. The Summit
will be another crucial step in the process of developing Alternatives. The Summit
programme will include sectoral and thematic forums, cultural and political events,
workshops, a teach-in and a March of the Americas.
This Hemispheric Social Alliance will serve as a counterwieght to corporate-led
globalization and give leadership in creating another Americas.
