Sponsor a participant at the Manila and the Amsterdam Global Justice School

The International Institutes for Research and Education (IIRE) in Amsterdam and Manila both will organize a Global Justice School (GJS) in 2011. The Global Justice School (GJS) at the IIRE Amsterdam will take place from the 26th of November until the 17th of December 2011. The school at the IIRE Manila (Asian GJS) will be held from the 17th of July until the 7th of August 2011.

iiremanilaWe hope to have participants from all over the world in the Amsterdam GJS. This represents a real enlargement of the discussions with the comrades from Europe (normally the majority of the participants in Amsterdam).

The 2nd Asian GJS was collectively endorsed by the IIRE-Manila, and organisations from Pakistan, Japan and Hong Kong. As experienced, endorsements are vital in attracting more organizations and movements to participate, in helping to raise much needed funds, especially for the airfare of Third World participants and to make the event a diverse one. For this year’s AGJS, we have invited people from Afghanistan, Malaysia, Indonesia, India, South Korea, Hong Kong, Sri Lanka, Japan, Pakistan and the Philippines to join the school. To make their participation possible, we are sending out this call to support our comrades from Third World countries. Any contribution will help the schools and strengthen the ties and coordination between groups in Asia. A sum of nine hundred dollars covers the travel costs and the participation for one person from one of these countries to the school in the Philippines.

The two IIRE’s launch this appeal to sponsor the travel costs for participants from the Third World to either school.
