<h2>Mobilisations G8/G20 2011</h2>
<h1>INTERNATIONAL PREPARATORY MEETING </h1>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0.5cm;"> Paris<br>
26-27th of March<br>
<br>
</p>
France will host the G8 and the G20 in 2011, which will respectively
be held the 27-28th of May in Deauville and the 3rd and 4th of
November in Cannes.<br>
<br>
<font size="2">Since 2008, the G20 has imposed itself as the main
framework for dialogue among the richest countries, in which their
leaders deliberate and define the “solutions” for the financial,
economic and climate crisis plaguing the entire planet. Yet
summits go by, and the multiple global crises remain. The last G8
and G20 meetings failed to bring any real solutions. On the
contrary, everything suggests that G20 leaders' sought first to
re-legitimize the actors and mechanisms at the origin of these
crises (IMF, WB, WTO, the free trade and investment regime, etc.),
while leaving it up to citizens to pay the price. Though truly
democratic solutions to the crisis do exist and it's urgent to
promote peoples' responses to the crisis and the system change
agenda face to the G20 agenda. </font><br>
<br>
The french groups, social movements, NGOs, unions... have organized
themselves into a national coalition, which coordinates the
mobilization process at the national level. <br>
See the call and the list of signatories here : <a

(still being developed)<br>
<br>
To help broadening the mobilization front, a call has been worked
out during the Dakar WSF (here enclosed in FR, EN and ES), which is
open to the signature of foreign organizations, networks, movements
willing to support and join the mobilizations planned in France. You
can send your signature to <a moz-do-not-send="true"

In Dakar<font color="#000000">, </font><font color="#000000">through
the G8 </font><font color="#000000">G20 convergence assembly for
action we launched </font>the international working process
towards these mobilizations in May and November. <br>
After London, Toronto and Seoul, the french coalition wishes to
build broad and dynamic mobilizations, involving a wide range of
groups and respecting their diversity of strategies and practices in
actions and mobilizations. <br>
The Deauville and Cannes mobilizations offer us an unique chance to
raise the people's voice face to the crisis and the world leaders'
false solutions. These mobilizations are yours. <br>

take part in the<br>
