Hello all, anti-WEF October 2003, Groups and Working Groups, First round of meetings:
Sunday July 20th, Teachers Club, 36 Parnell Sq., Dublin 1, 12.00am to 3.00pm.

Barry Finnegan here on behalf of the Irish Social Forum Communications Working
Group.

I am still writing up the summaries of the proceedings of the 2nd all-island
ISF get-together of Sunday last. (100 people from all over the island registered
their attendance!) I will send out the proceedings this Sunday the 13th
July 2003. We could not find a room for this Sunday the 13th July, so we
went for the following Sunday the 20th July.

At the end of the 2nd all-island ISF get-together we agreed that the various
groups and working groups emanating from the consensus would meet up again
in Dublin in order to finalise details and a co-operation strategy for the
events taking place in Dublin next October in opposition to the World Economic
Forum summit and their neoliberalist ideology and policies.

If any of your friends, colleagues and comrades did not get this email it
is because I could not read their handwriting on the registration sheets.

all the best,
Barry Finnegan
- on behalf of the Irish Social Forum Communications Working Group.
