The World Social Forum

The World Social Forum (WSF) is an annual gathering that brings together activists, organizations, and social movements from around the world to discuss and promote social justice, human rights, and environmental sustainability. Initiated in 2001 in Brazil, it serves as an alternative to the World Economic Forum, focusing on grassroots solutions and equitable policies. Participants share ideas, build networks, and strategize on ways to challenge economic inequality and address global issues. The WSF emphasizes inclusivity and collaboration, aiming to amplify voices advocating for a more just and equitable world.
