Bradford WDM welcomes BENNY DEMBITZER! 15.11.12
Growing Change film night
Over forty people enjoyed the film about the Venezuelan food revolution in the salubrious surroundings of the Delius centre. The home made cake and the wide ranging discussion also contributed to a stimulating evening; with (of course) the opportunity for all those present to take immediate action via WDM’s latest campaign!

Doing anything on October 18th? No? Then head on over to Delius Arts and Cultural Centre (postcode BD7 1AA) for a hand-picked film screening. We haven’t decided which film to show yet, but I can exclusively reveal it’s going to be a) about or related to WDM campaigns, and b) fascinating. Crucially, it’s free!
After the film, there’ll be opportunities for finding out more and getting involved.
If you can’t make the film, don’t miss Benny Dembitzer speaking at the Delius Centre on 15th November.
Update: We’ve now decided the film will be “Growing Change”: a film about Venezuela’s food revolution. Here’s a trailer to pique your interest.

Rio + 20: Our World is not for sale
Bradford World Development Movement members met David Ward MP on 2.6.12 to deliver a ‘Trojan horse’ . The Trojan horse represents the false green economy that is being proposed at Rio + 20, the Earth Summit taking place in Brazil from 20 – 22 June. The government’s proposals look great on the surface but could be deadly for the planet: putting a financial value on natural resources such as water and forests. David Ward said he would pass on a strong green message to Nick Clegg who will represent the UK at the summit. Campaigners want the UK to push for a real green economy that will benefit the world’s people and the planet.
