Dispatches from Dakar III

Audio reports from the World Social Forum produced for broadcast on campus/community radio globally.

In this segment of Dispatches from Dakar we will hear from Ahmad Jaradat from the Alternative Information Center in Palestine who speaks on activities taking place at the World Solidarity Forum at Cheikh Anta Diop university in solidarity with Palestine. Specifically Jaradat speaks on the key role that the World Social Forum has played in recent years in advancing the global boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) campaign against the Israeli state. Hundreds attended activities on Palestine at the World Social Forum in Dakar which backed a plan launched by the Boycott National Committee in Palestine for March 30th to be a BDS international day of action.
