The European Social Forum will bring together thousands of people in Florence this autumn to oppose the free market and militarism, the policies which dominate the mainstream political agenda across Europe. The ESF is to be based on the World Social Forum that took place in February in Porto Alegre, Brazil. Anti-capitalists, greens, trade unionists, socialists and many others will all protest and debate how we can create a better world.

What is the Mobilisation for the European Social Forum?
MESF brings together groups and individuals to organise for the ESF in England. We want to publicise the event, build support for it, organise transport to Italy, and so forth. Our first meeting, of over sixty people, included anti-capitalists, socialists, greens, NGOs and trade unionists. We've been having monthly planning meetings in central London.
