FORUM 2005, IN PORTO ALEGRE, BRAZIL,
FROM 26 TO 31 JANAURY, 2005.
The World Social Forum 2005 which took place at Porto Alegre,
Brazil, had over 2,500 scheduled events by some 4,000 organisations
from 112 countries. The number of participants was approx.
119,000. The Forum began and ended with a Peace March which
gathered together thousands of people all expressing in different
ways their deep desire for world peace. While the WSF is a
wellspring of alternatives, the process of discussion that
generates them is more important than the alternatives themselves.
