BE PART OF THE WORLD SOCIAL FORUM... SEND A LETTER TO 100,000 PEOPLE 
WHO ARE GATHERING IN MUMBAI,INDIA TO MAKE ANOTHER WORLD POSSIBLE

In the three years since its inception the World Social Forum has 
become an international landmark. In an era where corporate 
globalisation is presented as an inevitability, where the neo-liberal 
notion of development increasingly pervades most governments and 
undermines traditional cultures, thousands of activists, artists, 
academics, economists, writers, students, farmers, workers and many 
others will gather to protest this domination of capital over 
humanity, with vitality, wit and vision and to celebrate an 
alternative view of democracy and development because ANOTHER WORLD 
IS POSSIBLE.

In 2004 the World Social Forum will take place in Mumbai, India from 
16th-21st January.

AT THE CONFERENCE GROUNDS A VIDEO TUNNEL OF HALF A KILOMETER WILL
