How might we become deeply relational to or for the World Social Forum? Here's a taste of their passionate and obviously attracting activism, which comes from a brief in Utne Reader [Jan. 2004]:

Under the banner "Another World Is Possible," representatives of social movements from across the globe will gather in Mumbai, India, for the fourth annual world Social Forum. founded in 2--1 as an alternative to the annual World Economic Forum -- where corporate and government officials discuss global economic policy in the Swiss resort town of Davos -- the WSF was established as "an open meeting place for reflective thinking, democratic debate of ideas, formulation of proposals, free exchange of experiences and interlinking for effective action, by groups and movements of civil society that are opposed to neoliberalism and to domination of the world by capital and any form of imperialism, and are committed to building a society centered on the human person." The first WSF drew 20,000 environmental, peace, and global justice activists to the Brazilian city of Porto Alegre [2001]. [2003, same location] drew over 100,000, including numerous heads of state. [They now alternate between India and Brazil. See their website, www.wsf.org.

Do they publish a journal that we could publish articles in? Would this perspective find a place in their annual gatherings at this stage?

STUDY THIS ORGANIZATION. [Short of mention of anything to do with Consciousness-Shift experiences and their implications .. ] THEY ARE FULLY REPRESENTATIVE OF THE GREEN CULTURAL CREATIVES, PURSUING EXACTLY THE MISSION EMBODYING THE VALUES AND OBJECTIVES OF WHAT IT MEANS TO LIVE THE 'AWAKENED LIFE'. IS THERE A POSSIBILITY FOR A COLLABORATIVE RELATIONSHIP WITH THIS ORGANIZATION?

BuyBlue.org supports businesses that share our progressive values and ideals. We believe in a triple bottom line: people, planet and profit. BuyBlue.org uses our power as consumers to vote with our wallets, supporting businesses that abide by sustainability, workers' rights, environmental standards, and corporate transparency. At the same time, BuyBlue.org focuses sharply on businesses that violate the essential values of a sustainable, fair and profitable society through their policies and the politicians they support.

BuyBlue.org will become a powerful tool used by a community of millions. We will form strong coalitions with stockholders, shareholders, corporations, small businesses and communities which share our values to gain strength through numbers. We will influence the political landscape, stimulate economic growth among participating businesses and industries and use the American dollar as an incentive for corporate transparency and responsibility.
