Després de Florenzia 2002, Paris 2003, Londres 2004 i d'Atenas 2006, per primer cop un país nòrdic feia d'anfitrió d'un Fòrum Social Europeu. Va ser a la sueca i sudenya Malmö, governada per una coalició d'esquerres - socialistes i partit de l'esquerra- els dies 20 i 21 de setembre que va conbregar unes 13.000 persones entre debats, concerts i activitats culturals de tota mena. Sindicalistes, persones vinculades a ONGs i entitats diverses, socialistes, comunistes, cristians, així com joventut amb voluntat de fer un món més just i solidari. Un bon grapat d'activistes, que, malgrat tot, no arribaven a les previsions de 20.000-25.000 que s'esperaven.

2009: To Change Europe
On the European level, we are witnessing a liberal and anti-social front on all domains: economic financial crisis, price increases, food borne illness crisis, privatization and disassembly of public services, movements against work reform, decisions of the European Court of Justice, dismantling of the Common Agricultural Policy, reinforcement of Fortress Europe against migrants, weakening of democratic and civil rights and growing repression, economic cooperation agreements, military intervention in external conflicts, military bases… all this in a world where inequalities, poverty and global and permanent war are increasing day by day.
In this context of global crisis, we want to reaffirm that alternatives do exist for global justice, peace, democracy and environnement. We, the European social movements gathering in Malmö, have committed on a common agenda in the way to lead the fight for "another Europe" and Europe based on the people’s rights.
1. On the social issue:
We launch immediately a COMMON EUROPEAN CAMPAIGN against UE social and labour policies, fisrt to oppose specifically the EU directive on working time and UE decision on migrant labour. This campaign will have different steps (ex: December the 6th in Paris) and includes the objective of a massive joint mobilization at European level as soon as possible. As a second step, we build up a large, inclusive and strategic conference/counter-summit of all the European social movement, in Brussels in March.
2. Contra la Guerra i contra la OTAN:
we call a large demonstration in April the 4th in Strasbourg/Khiel, centre of celebration of the 60th anniversary of NATO, to say “stop NATO” and dissolving this terrifying tool of war. In the same day we call demonstrations in all countries in Europe. We propose the WSF in Belem to declare the 4th of April a day of international mobilisation against Nato.
3. Contra la crisis climàtica:
we call for a global day of action on climate on december 6th during the Poznan summit in Poznan itself and al other the world. We are calling for a massive international mobilisation next year to make the critical Kopenhagen talks in December 2009
4. Contra el G8:
In july 2009, the Sardinian and Italian social movement will invite all movements to come to Sardaina where the G8 sumitt will be held in la Maddalena island to protest against G8 and its policies and to present our alternatives for global justice, peace, democracy and environnement.
