Today Monday the 7th of February we are celebrating the achievements of the Bolivians on stopping privatisation of their natural resources and discussing new ways of empowering ourselves not only nationally but also globally to consolidate our achievements and expand people's power. We are also showing today 'The Coconut Revolution' a film about an small island in the pacific that showed a multinational corporation they don’t need them to administrate their resources.

Tomorrow Tuesday we are showing "The Take" a film made by Nohemi Klein and her husband about the workers taking over a factory in Argentina followed by a talk by Josef Davis-Coates about the Open.coop. www.open.coop.

The purpose of the Open Co-op is to build a world-wide community of individuals and organisations committed to creating a collaborative, sustainable economy.
We are laying the foundations for a global network of Community Support Providers to pull together existing sustainable enterprises, community action groups, and individuals into a new framework of mutual support and transparent ethical trade.
