We spent the day exploring the Global Village of Alternatives, a festive space for participants to co-create alternative solutions, both local and international, for climate and social justice. The Coalition Climat 21 includes more than 130 organizations from civil society, labor unions, associations of international solidarity, faith groups, NGOs defending human rights and the environment and social movements.
Hundreds of actions, debates and initiatives will be organized by civil society, both French and International, in and around Paris during the whole two weeks of the COP21. But this weekend will see the greatest concentration of debates, workshops, screenings and presentations of concrete alternatives in the face of climate change. This “People’s Climate Summit” will take place in Montreuil, a lively working-class town just outside the East of Paris.
