Global Justice Sheffield – a new name for WDM Sheffield

December 11, 2014 by sheffield

Global Justice Sheffield logo

After 45 years, the World Development Movement (WDM) is changing it’s name to Global Justice Now. WDM Sheffield will be now known as Global Justice Sheffield.

In September, members of the World Development Movement from around the country voted to change our name to Global Justice Now. Changing our name is just one step in a bigger ‘relaunch’. This isn’t about changing our values, but expressing them more effectively. About building a bigger movement and running more high profile campaigns which can really start to change the world.

The website for Global Justice Sheffield will be updated in the new year, but in the meantime you can continue get updates on events here. We do have a new email address (effectively immediately): globaljusticesheffield@gmail.com.

If you would like to know more about the change in name, do read Nick Dearden’s blogpost WDM members vote to change our name.

Current Campaigns

Don't let corporate courts block climate action.
Corporate courts give fossil fuel companies the power to sue governments for taking action on the climate emergency. They are an obstacle to a clean energy transition and to achieving climate justice. Tell Keir Starmer and the trade department not to let corporate courts block climate action.

Prime Minister: Support the Global Exit Plan from Fossil Fuels
The Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty is a global plan to bring a fast and fair end to the era of coal, oil and gas. This transformative global plan is being championed by climate-vulnerable countries in te global sout. Now we need big polluting states like the UK on board.
