Put People First campaign day
18 August 2009

 

This autumn the G20 is back.

 

On Friday 4 September, the G20 finance ministers are meeting to discuss the financial crisis.

This will be for the first time since April's G20 summit.

 

So far they've failed the challenge of putting people first in response to the financial crisis.

Instead they've patched up the old system that has led to:

  • Global poverty
  • Inequality
  • Climate chaos

 

No more business as usual

 

Join us to demand action on jobs, justice and climate.

Learn more about some of the key institutions behind the crisis, and discuss what's next for Put People First campaigning.
