Call for Social Movements to mobilize for the upcoming World Social
Forum (Tunisia, 2015)


Dear friends,

During its last meeting held in Casablanca in December 2014, the
International Council decided to organize the upcoming World Social
Forum 2015 once again in Tunisia.

This decision was made based on an evaluation of the proceedings of
the WSF 2013, and a common assessment of the situation of struggles
marshalled by different social movements in the region, and the world,
as well as the new geopolitical context and the evolving nature of the
neoliberal crisis.

Indeed, it is now imperative to realize that since 2011, and after
Arab revolutions have represented a source of hope to uplift the
region from its status-quo, and a source of inspiration for the entire
world to change, the Arab region is currently undergoing deeply
worrisome dynamics. Governments in power over the past three years
have yet to put in place the necessary policies and programs which
respond to the claims of young people seeking freedom and employment,
women seeking equality, social movements seeking social justice. On
the contrary, throughout the region the flows of weapons and violence
abound, and religious extremism is deepening its reach, neo-liberal
policies dictated by the World Bank and the IMF are presented as the
only solution and the social movements and democratic movements are
criminalized. External political and military interventions have
become the rule, each time instrumentalizing internal instability to
facilitate interventions by the United States, Europe, Turkey and the
Gulf countries.

Beyond the Maghreb and the Mashreq, the African continent has become
the primary source of raw material, present as the “new economic
frontier”, it too a frontier ravaged by violent extremism, the
plundering of its resources, and the devastating violence inflicted by
structural adjustment programs and the militarization of its
territories.

Everywhere in the world, including in Europe, Asia, Latin America, and
North America, social movements find themselves facing aggravating
economic, social and environmental crisis, as well as a systemic
attack on their rights. New tensions, directly related to hegemonic
practices to appropriate resources and conquer markets, threaten to
bring the worst in Europe, Asia and Africa.

The World Social Forum remains, more than ever, a vital space for
social movements which struggle to preserve people’s dignity, so that
they remain masters of their own destiny, able to fight for and
acquire new economic, social, cultural and environmental rights, and
able to construct alternatives to the neoliberal world order.

The social movements of Tunis, as well as of the Mashreq and Maghreb
invite you to join their efforts in the construction of a more just
world, where justice, equality and peace prevail, and where
alternatives for the current world order, to which countless
populations aspire, are discussed and debated.

Together, we would like to work to put together an open, participatory
and democratic mechanism for the organization of the World Economic
Forum 2015.



Another Maghreb Mashreq is possible
