Take part in the new WSF donation campaign O Fórum Social Mundial foi criado para facilitar o diálogo entre os povos e gerar ações práticas para melhoria do planeta. Isso depende de cada um de nós. Especialmente agora: o FSM está ameaçado por um déficit de R$ 3 milhões de sua última edição, devido a doações prometidas mas não concretizadas. Colabore. Doe qualquer valor. O déficit é grande, mas muito inferior ao poder de organização de quem deseja um mundo melhor. Juntos faremos com que a última edição do FSM não tenha sido definitivamente a última.
