Every day seems to bring a new crisis: financial markets in turmoil, energy price rises, food riots, violent conflicts and environmental disasters. And whatever the disaster, poor and marginalised people are always affected the most.
The world doesn't have to be this way. Every person on the planet can make change happen. 6 Billion Ways is a day of ideas, discussion, creativity and action to explore the causes and solutions to these interlinked global crises. Come along to be inspired and make connections with others who want to be challenge injustice.
With speakers, films, music, and a chance to learn and practise new skills, 6 Billion Ways is your chance to get inspired and join local and global networks building a better world.
6 Billion Ways is organised by City Circle, Friends of the Earth, War on Want, Jubilee Debt Campaign, People and Planet, the World Development Movement and Rich Mix.
