Activist August

Date: 13 August 2014

This August the World Development Movement will be going to Reclaim the Power in Blackpool and the Attac’s European Summer University in Paris to link up with activists from across the UK and Europe fighting against the corporate takeover of our democracy, our energy, and our food.

Reclaim the Power

Reclaim the Power is an anti-fracking protest camp in Blackpool. The World Development Movement will be doing workshops on how to defeat the EU-US trade deal (TTIP) and on how can we stand in solidarity with communities affected by energy extraction.
