                  1) Grasping the size of WSF2008 

                  More than 800 actions in 80 countries. That is the span of World Social Forum in 2008: a decentralized mobilization process that culminated in a Global Day of Action on January 26th. 

                      - access 800 action spaces in http://wsf2008.net/eng/og
                      - access 800 actions in http://wsf2008.net/eng/findaction
                      - access directory of 2500 organisations having participated in http://www.wsf2008.net/eng/taxonomy/vocabulary/1
                      - browse 80 countries in http://www.wsf2008.net/eng/countries

                  As a result of this journey, hundreds of thousands of people gathered in their home towns and cities, exchanged information, discovered different organisations and movements, demonstrated on the streets for local and global change, celebrated alternatives and acted togheter against any kind of exploitation and for another possible world.

                  Global day of action inaugurated a new form of mobilization, that can grow to gathering millions of people 

                  In order to make this rich and diverse global journey visible to all the participants and beyond media coverage, we invite you to build the collective memory of World Social Forum 2008. 


                  2) Visualizing richness and diversity of GDA

                  3) Building memory of GDA - reporting is part of the action!

                  Many people and organisations have already started to make their reports using websites and mail lists to collect and publicize photos, articles, pamphlets and media clipping about January 26th.
