The World Social Forum has consolidated itself as an open space of horizontal and plural encounter for the democratic debate of ideas, the formulation of proposals, the free exchange of experiences and the articulation for effective actions by organizations and movements of the planetary civil society that oppose the control by capital and by any form of imperialism.
It is a worldwide process that seeks to build alternatives to neoliberal globalization and has sought to strengthen the articulations of social movements, networks and other forms of articulation of civil society in national and international spheres increasing the capacity of social resistance, with plurality, to the process dehumanization that the world is experiencing. People, organizations, social movements, networks and platforms from all over the World come together in Brazil, from March 13 to 17, 2018, in Salvador, Bahia for the implementation of the 2018 World Social Forum.
Joel ODIDIE led a delegation of ITUC-Africa to the WSF to give more voice and vigour to the migration campaign.
