Education Protests in September 2011

We are Everywhere!

The following is an overview of protests linked to our struggle against the increasing commercialisation of education and for free emancipatory education around the world during September 2011. It supports the thesis that this is a struggle against symptoms of the currently dominating economic system, an economic system which unleashes its forces on the global level. Therefore the need to connect around the world to counter these developments and fight for a different education together is self-evident. Groups and activists worldwide are currently getting ready for the "Global Weeks of Action for Education" (November 07-20th 2011) with the "international joint statement" as the basis. Consider to get involved in the coordinations on the International Student Movement platform and to endorse the joint statement as an assembly, group or individual.
