Talkin’ ‘bout a global revolution

Article / 6th January 2014

As the global financial crisis now enters its seventh year, it is time to start asking difficult questions about the right priorities for popular protest if we want to realise a truly united voice of the world’s people.

Global Sharing Day 2013: let’s talk about food

Article / 2nd June 2013

The idea of sharing food has taken root in recent years as a response to our broken food systems, but does it make sense to talk about food sharing on a global basis?
