Set your agendas: according to the next G8 summit will be “early June 2003”, in Evian-les- Bains, France. According to the article, the most likely dates the conference will be held on are 1-3 June.
Evian-les- Bains, a tourist town best know for its mineral water, is somewhat easier to reach then where this year’s G8 summit was held, Kananaskis, Albert, but still less so then Genoa. It’s a small town, with approximately 7,500 inhabitants. Our socalled leaders are still trying to keep the riffraff out.
If elitism is not your thing, remember that there’s an alternative, the European Social Forum:
It is an an open meeting space designed for in-depth reflection, democratic debate of ideas, formulation of proposals, free exchange of experiences and planning of effective action among entities and movements of civil society that are engaged in building a planetary society centered on the human being.
