Challenging capitalism towards the construction of a democratic society

International Conference – July 28th, 29th and 30th – Bogotá (Colombia)

How to live together in this world? That is the question that guides this initiative. For today it seems easier to imagine social collapse than the liberation of peoples. We need to put into dialogue the actions, paradigms, thoughts and ideologies of each region and each territory in order to nurture our emancipatory horizons at a global level. We agree that any deep and radical transformation of this society must have a clearly anti-capitalist, anti-colonial, anti-fascist, anti-racist and anti-patriarchal content.
