Reading WDM’s meetings are held on the third Monday of the month at RISC at 7.30pm. The date of our next meeting Monday 25th February.
We will be showing the film ‘Growing Change’ which charts the growth of food sovereignty in Venezuela. This shows how it is possible to make positive change towards food sovereignty. This fits in well with our campaign against gambling on food, especially during this period of crop failures which are also increasing the cost of food staples.
This date will be the 10th anniversary of the “Stop EPA’s campaign” – the unfair trade negotiations between the EU and 76 African, Caribbean and Pacific countries – which if fully implemented will cause further poverty. WDM and other organisations have campaigned hard against the signing of these agreements – which were supposed to be completed in 2007 – so campaigning does do some good! We look forward to see you at the meeting.
