We are holding the Zimbabwe
Social Forum against the background of deepening social and economic
crisis in the country Characterised by deteriorating social services,
poor access to basics and increased privatisation of private good.
Southern African region
has been saddled with undemocratic governance, impunity of corporates
in Extractive industries, global climate catastrophe, unsustainable
exploitation of natural resources, dominance of corporates in the
energy sector, patriarchy, increasing violence against women and
children, displacement of communities by corporates with active
collaboration of governments, increasing food insecurity, damage
to ecosystems, growing inequalities, decline in health and education
service provision and standards, deprivation of sustainable livelihoods,
extensive land grabbing by corporates and governments collaborating
actively with traditional leadership, continued recolonisation through
for example bilateral agreements like the Economic Partnership Agreements
and shady deals with the BRICS countries, the continued violations
of economic, social, cultural and environmental rights, excessive
dependency on export oriented economies, and finally the continued
dominance of the free market dogma and ascendancy of neo-liberalism.
The Zimbabwe
Social Forum is a space dedicated to those struggling against, and
directly challenging corporate fascism, neo-liberalism and market-led
globalization.
