Government responses to the financial crisis have led to deep public sector cuts, record levels of unemployment, depressed wages, poverty and at the same time rising wages for corporate executives, declining taxes for the rich, and booming city profits.

But the financial crisis has also triggered inspiring movements for change across the world. Whether you want to learn the nuts and bolts of the current financial situation, hear stories from economic justice campaigners from Manchester, Greece, Egypt, and more, or share ideas and tactics for how to organise for a fairer economic system where you live, there’s something here for everyone.

Workshops and sessions on causes of the financial crisis, tax havens, the 'solidarity economy', the global movement against austerity, activism for food justice locally and globally, debt audits, overseas aid and philanthropy, economic justice and the Arab Spring, organising for workplace rights and more.
Event organised jointly by Jubilee Debt Campaign and the World Development Movement.
