Atlantic Regional Solidarity Network (ARSN) Annual Gathering
Friday November 9 2012 (All day) -
Sunday November 11 2012 (All day)
If you are interested in issues that affect Latin America and the Caribbean, this is the gathering for you. Activists and interested participants from around the Maritimes gather to meet, network, plan and strategize on issues in these regions and explore what is going on, how we are affected and what we can do about it. It's a great weekend to find ways to get connected with global solidarity and social change.
This year's theme is Movements: North and South. We will be exploring movements of resistance and creative alternatives in Latin America and in Canada. We will explore movements in defense of territory (against mining and drilling), defending the right to education, labour organizing, and local economic development initiatives. A full agenda for the weekend will follow soon.
Mark November 9-11 on your calendar and join us! All are welcome!
