London, UK hosts the second G20 meeting of world leaders. The development sector (and likely others) are planning mobilisations around this event, so plan to stay after the 2009 eCampaigning Forum to participate.

Anyone who knows what is being planned please share it here!

Subject: G20 Meltdown: Mass Street Party
Message-ID: <20090318113525-0500@fairsay.com>

Capitalism has been heating up our world for years, melting the icecaps, burning up the rainforests, pushing the planet to tipping point. Now we're going to put the heat on them. At the London Summit , the G20 ministers are trying to get away with the biggest April Fools trick of all time. Their tax-dodging, bonus-guzzling, pension-pinching, unregulated free market world's in meltdown, and those fools think we're going to bail them out. They've gotta be joking!
We can't pay, we won't pay and we are taking to the streets

Things may change on the day, perhaps significantly. There is a text message news service which will be available during and in advance of the G20 Leaders meeting. We strongly recommend that people subscribe to
it. It is possible, even likely, that the place that we finally set up camp will not be the Climate Exchange.

Subject: G20 Alternative Summit
Message-ID: <20090318113833-0500@fairsay.com>

The G20 Alternative Summit will be a popular assembly or ‘teach-in’ in a densely populated, working class area of London. It is being hosted at the national level by Britain’s University and College Lecturers’ Union (UCU). In addition to comedians, poets, artists, musicians, scientists and academics, we will be inviting shop stewards and activists engaged in current struggles.We intend to make our summit an assembly of the East London working class and of the labour movement as a whole.
