ABOUT THE EUROPEAN CREATIVE FORUM

“Business as usual, government as usual, and perhaps even protest as usual are not giving us the progress needed to achieve sustainable development. Let’s see if we can’t work together to find better paths forward…” (Hohnen)

We now need to find creative solutions to manifest a world where sustainable social values are placed above economic gain…

The Creative Forum is an open space for all people to express creative visions of another world that includes:
* harmony * inclusivity * participation * empowerment * authentic communication

The ECF aims to increase awareness of the European Social Forum, which comes to London in October and promotes Culture and Creativity as powerful tools for social change.

Join the European Creative Forum on Saturday June 12th at Project 142 and help to create more Visions of Another World.
