I am attending the fifth World Social Forum in Porto Alegre, Brazil in January 2005 with the Network Institute for Global Democratization.
Monday, January 24, 2005
<Marc> The International Council is meeting today and tomorrow to discuss larger
programmatic issues related to the World Social Forum. We are finalizing
flyers and an ad for the meetings that we are organizing. Even though the
forum does not start for 2 days, many people are already here and there is
a lot of buzz in the air.
The power just went off in the Press Center. Talk about a groan going up
as everyone loses their work. Fortunately, my laptop still has a battery...
