11am-12pm. We will be doing a piece of street theatre/stunt focusing on food speculation outside Tesco on Cowley Road, Oxford. Come along and have some fun and put across an important message at the same time. If you don’t feel like dressing up, we need people handing out cards etc too.
If you can help out, contact us on oxwdm@phonecoop.coop or 01295 259 377.

2-5pm Sat & Sun: Trading for Development and the Jericho Community Centre are holding their annual Fair Trade Christmas Fair at the Jericho Community Centre (33a Canal Street, Oxford, OX2 6BQ)
As well as fair trade products, there will also be a raffle in aid of the Oxford-based homeless charity, The Gatehouse.
WDM’s campaign to stop food speculation now has a comic take! The Real George Osborne – a 14 episode comedy web series about George Osborne’s personal journey towards tackling global hunger. We hope that you enjoy it, share it with your friends and, crucially, take action.

COP17: Tipping point for the international climate talks.
The Kyoto Protocol ends in 2012. The UN climate talks in Durban starting late November 2011 could be our last chance to save the current international climate deal. Industrialised countries are pushing to replace it with a voluntary system for reduction of emissions. A new fund to deliver finance needed by countries affected by climate change is in danger of being given to the World Bank for loans instead of grants or reparations.
Sarah Reader, climate justice campaigner for World Development Movement, will update us on the recent G20 talks and the upcoming UN climate talks and suggest actions we can take. She will be joined by activist John Halladay of Greenpeace.
Venue: RISC 35-39 London St, Reading RG1 4PS

We’re part of Global Justice Now, a democratic membership organisation which campaigns against inequality and injustice in the global economy. We want to see a world where ordinary people control the resources they need to live a decent life, rather than corporations and the super rich calling the shots.
