9 July Hope in the Dark – national gathering and AGM

As temperatures rise year on year, the whole world is becoming more vulnerable to climate chaos. Yet the worst effects are mostly suffered by those communities who have contributed least to climate breakdown. To have any hope of adapting to a changing climate, while also preventing the crisis from getting even worse, we need a global just transition – but countries in the global south are hamstrung by a world economy that works in the interests of the rich. Join Global Justice Now’s 2022 national gathering to discuss what a just global transition looks like, and how climate justice movements are taking a stand the world over. The event runs from 1pm-6pm on Saturday 9 July at the Owen Building, Sheffield Hallam University, Sheffield S1 1WB, and is preceded by our AGM. Book your free place for both via

17-21 August European Summer University of Social Movements

Global Justice Now is taking part in a panEuropean political education and movement building event in Mönchengladbach (near Cologne) in Germany this August, along with many of our allies. It’s an activist event with simultaneous interpretation between English, German and French, and a huge range of sessions. We’ll be strategising with European trade activists as well as hearing from speakers such as Luciana Ghiotto from the Latin America Platform Against Free Trade Deals. We’ll be joined by Maaza Seyoum of the African Alliance, a leading figure in the global campaign for a People’s Vaccine. And Shaista Aziz of Oxford Anti-Racist City will be speaking at a forum we’re organising on building movements that are actively anti-oppressive. The last time an event like this happened, in Toulouse in 2017, a number of Global Justice Now members came along. Mönchengladbach is a direct train ride from Brussels, so it’s a feasible journey from the UK without flying. For more information go to globaljustice.org.uk/esu22
