esf report back + 2nd isf

Dear all,

This Saturday 20th Nov. 2003, Teachers Club, Parnell Sq., Dublin 1, 1.00 pm to 4.00 pm.

European Social Forum (ESF) Report-Back Meeting Hosted by Dublin Social Forum Working Group

- and the second part of the meeting will be an opportunity for one and all to start the dialogue as to when and where we want to have the 2nd ISF and perhaps also an opportunity to discuss further how the existing regional
(north-east, north-west, south-east and Cork Social Forum Working Groups can interact/liase/be informed on and with each other and with ESF and WSF processes.

Reports on Recent 2nd ESF From:

- Ailbhe Smyth, Director, Women's Education, Research and Resource Centre, (WERRC)
University College Dublin.
- Jean Somers, Debt and Development Coalition.
- Richard Boyd Barrett, Irish Anti War Movement, and SWP.

This will be followed by reports from anyone else who was at the 2nd ESF and wishes to share their views. So come along if you were there or
would like to hear first hand accounts.

This meeting will take the form of facilitated dialogue as practised at the 1st ISF and the ISF Working Group meetings [i.e.: round circle, say
your name and or groups/parties you are member of before submission] which will then discuss ideas for when and where for the 2nd Irish Social Forum should take place. If we have time we can discuss improving regional ISF communications.
