World Social Forum

The World Social Forum (WSF) is an annual gathering where activists, social movements, and civil society groups from around the world come together to discuss and promote alternatives to global capitalism and social injustice. Founded in 2001 in Brazil, the forum serves as a space for dialogue, sharing ideas, and building solidarity among diverse organizations focused on issues like poverty, inequality, and environmental sustainability. It emphasizes the belief that another world is possible, promoting democratic participation and equitable solutions to global challenges without the influence of corporate interests.
