Community, Indigenous and Environmental Organisations.
In Melbourne between September 11th and 13th, business and political leaders
from the Asia Pacific region will be in Melbourne for the World Economic
Forum (WEF) Regional Meeting.
The WEF is a corporate think tank comprised of the politicians and CEOs and
other executives of the richest 1000 companies in the world. The WEF has
been instrumental in pushing the free trade and globalisation agenda. This
path is resulting in a growing gap between rich and poor, social tensions
and environmental disasters.
Ensuring a more equitable spread of the benefits of globalisation is one of
the most important development challenges facing human kind. On September
10, you will have a chance to hear and support other voices and other
values working towards a more economically equitable, environmentally
sustainable and culturally embracing vision of global development.
