2010 People's Summit
The 2010 G20 Summit, set to take place in Toronto, Ontario (June 26-27, 2010) presents Canadian civil society organizations and groups with an opportunity to strengthen our collective voice and lend cohesion to our efforts on the environment, poverty, human rights and social justice.
The actions and policies of the G8 and its member-states have significant impact on millions of lives the world over, and with this, comes an opportunity for us - community organizers, activists, non-governmental organizations, independent media, workers, impacted communities, artists - the people - to work together to educate, empower and ignite positive change we would like to see in our world.
We converge in Toronto from June 18th - 27th to create a space where our diverse movements can democratically organize to advocate and educate on behalf of global justice. The People's Summit is happening from June 18th-20th, and will be followed by a week of autonomous actions throughout Toronto in the lead up to the arrival of the G20 Leaders on June 26th.
Please see the website for a list of programming occuring that weekend.
