Trade Week of Action
Country:
Many
City:
Global
The Trade Week of Action from 14 - 21 October (Sunday to Sunday) is an important moment to call for trade justice and to be in solidarity with millions of other people who are taking action that week.

Join us in a host of actions calling for just trading relations - from fasts and agape meals, church services and hunger tribunals to petitions, street theatre, marches, exhibitions and displays and many other creative and colorful ways of getting our messages heard and seen.

 

The week of 14-21 October is a key time because:

  • 16 October is World Food Day
  • 17 October is the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty, a Stand Up Against Poverty day
  • 19-21 October are the joint annual meetings of the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund
  • Jubilee campaigns are joining in a Global Week of Action against Debt
 

The Trade Week of Action on 14-21 October 2007 is a chance to tell the world that enforced free trade is inflicting misery on millions of poor people, and that there are alternatives.
