The evidence that the Gaza casualty numbers from the Hamas-run Health Ministry (now over 32,000) are wildly inflated continues to mount. Mark Zlochin looks at what the proportions of male and female UNRWA workers tell us.

Don't be fooled by the 'Britain is growing' fairytales, says David Craig. Any 'growth' is accounted for by the hike in the benefits bill and in civil servants' pay and a heap of other unproductive deficit spending.

Climate Change: The Movie, the new film by Martin Durkin, should be shown at every school in the country to disabuse anxious young people of the idea that we're in the midst of a 'climate emergency'.

The World Health Organisation is gearing up to persuade the world's governments to sign a new pandemic treaty that would allow the unelected body to seize power over nation states in future pandemics, warns Matt Ridley.

It's hard to tell the difference these days between genuine news stories relating to 'anti-racist' ? or, more realistically, anti-white ? ideas and the spoofs and fakes. Pit your wits against our Easter quiz.

South East Social Forum to be Launched

category national | public consultation / irish social forum | press release author Monday July 07, 2003 11:21author by South East Social Forum - SESFauthor email grwaterford at hotmail dot com Report this post to the editors

The South East Social Forum will be launched on Tuesday 15th July

The South East Social Forum will be launched on Tuesday 15th in the ATGWU Union Hall, Keyser Street, Waterford @ 8.00p.m. All are welcome.

Social Forums are born of grass roots social movements dedicated to ensuring that human rights are promoted, protected, and fulfilled by governments, intergovernmental organisations, companies and other non-state actors. The SESF is for anyone who wants to challenge the principles that the market is more important than the people who live on this planet. It will be a chance to participate in discussions with leading activists from across the country and to create campaigning networks of resistance.

The South East Social Forum will be part of the Irish Social Forum, whcih will facilitate open discussion with progressive groups who seek an alternative to type of world we currently live in, and who wish to bring the spirit of the global anti-capitalist movement to Ireland. This movement organised protests and events at the meetings of the World Trade Organisation in Seattle, the G8 in Genoa and Evian, and was instrumental in the building of the anti-war movement and the international day of action against the war on February 15th. The ISF is a diverse group comprised of many groups and individuals of different political and social backgrounds.

The World Economic Forum will be meting in Dublin on October 20th-21st. The initial focus of the ISF will be organising protests and a counter-summit to challenge the ideology of this neo-liberal body. The WEF advocates policies such as privatisation of public services and slashing of public funding, which the Irish government implements with enthusiasm.

Many groups in Ireland are effected by the decisions at this summit. For example, trade unions fighting attacks on workers conditions, public workers facing privatisation, health workers and patients facing cutbacks, anti-incinerator campaigners, NGO’s campaigning for global justice, anti-service charges campaigns, anti-racist groups, community groups dealing with the effects of poverty and social exclusion, the list goes on.

To facilitate a local input into the ISF, we are establishing a South-East Social Forum at a meeting in the ATGWU Union Hall, Keyser Street on Tuesday 15th July. We hope you can attend this meeting and help create a real movement for change and social justice and attempt to establish the principal of People Before Profit.
