The People’s Health Movement (PHM) and Oxfam-France call for actions towards democratizing global health governance, realizing equitable and universal health care systems, and addressing social determinants of health.

After inspiring peoples across the world by initiating the Arab Spring, social movements and activists across the world have chosen Tunisia to host the 2013 edition of the World Social Forum (WSF).

Tens of thousands of activists will gather in Tunis to defend people’s ‘Dignity’ from 26th – 30th March 2013.

During the WSF 2013, the PHM jointly with Oxfam-France is organizing three workshops.
