[Geraldene Peters]

Thinking in terms of screenings that if there's a coincidence between
screenings and the dates below that programming be organised to raise
publicity about these institutions?
Best, Geraldene

> Over the last years, meetings of the institutions have been fiercely
> contested by the worlds people, providing much needed spaces for more
> localised, day to day struggles to converge and realise the possibilities
> that can be unleashed when we begin to co-operate. From these mobilisation
> has emerged a global 'movement of movements'  that
> is in many ways unprecedented.
> 
> In 2005, across 4 continents resistance to these summits will continue,
> attempting to learn from and build upon our collective experiences as a
> global movement and bring us closer towards creating this other possible
> world so often talked about.

> This call is a result of converging at the Caracol Intergalaktika,
