Bamako: Lettre de retour de Bamako aux camarades

From the 6th World Social Forum in Bamako, Susan George reports on the
hospitality of the people, as well as of the misery that the World Bank
policies have created in Africa by promoting privatisation. She stresses
the importance of the role played by African activists in fighting
neo-liberal policies – especially EU–promoted Economic Partnership
Agreements. These are free trade agreements that go even further than
the WTO in liberalising markets, and threaten the very survival of
African economies.
