          Changes in our programme

            Attention all European Peace Action participants! Unfortunately the ESF programme group has made some mistakes with our seminar:

            The Growing Influence of NATO and the Militarisation of EU

            This seminar/workshop will be in Folkets hus Nobeltorget, Sal 1. All the other EPA workshops will be at Norra Skolgatan 10, where we also have our café Fredis.

            The NATO workshop is not listed in the printed ESF programme, but will happen. So tell all your friends about it.

            New EPA magazine ready

              The ePAZine, specially printed for the European Social Forum, has 16 pages of in depth articles about peace issues and interviews with peace activist groups from all over Europe. You also get the programme for European Peace Action forum, more information about the workshops and seminars and a quiz! Download it now for a preview, and get your copy at the ESF! If you want to help spreading the magazine at the ESF, let us know with the volunteer form.
