WMW participates in anti-NATO actions in Portugal
17-11-2010
The next NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) summit will take place in Lisbon, from the 19th to the 21st November, to discuss their future and adopt their new “strategic plan”. With peaceful civil disobedience actions, marches, debates and poetry, activists from around the world will carry out a simultaneous counter-summit to denounce the military intentions of the NATO participating governments and to demand global peace, disarmament and the end of NATO.
As part of the anti-NATO summit, the World March of Women is organising a public debate called "Militarism rhymes with patriarchy and capitalism", to be held on Friday, 19th November at the IPJ Moscavide (Rua de Moscavide, Lt 47 - 101), at 9pm. The activity is part of the WMW European Coordination Meeting, which will take place from the 19th to the 21st November. For further info: http://www.marchamundialdasmulheres.blogspot.com/
The WMW will also participate in the international demonstration "NO to war, NO to NATO", on Saturday, 20th November (concentration in the Praça Marquês de Pombal, at 3 pm).
