PROPOSITION OF THEMATIC AXES FOR THE WSF 2016 (FEBRUARY 2016) The themes contained in this proposal are derived from the collaborative work process carried out from September 2015 to February 2016. This process, facilitated by the Programming Working Group, took several steps, with working seminars in Montreal (1-3th of October and 16th of December 2015), two international web consultations (September 2015 and December/January 2016) and finally a last working seminar in Porto Alegre (Brazil) during the thematic World Social Forum (19-23 January 2016) and the International Council meeting that followed (23-24 January). These themes are intended to facilitate the construction of the general programming of the WSF 2016, guiding people who wish to provide activities through the auto-programming process. The themes will also allow participants of the WSF 2016 to understand the structure of the program of the WSF and identify the themes that interest them.
