The themes of the Nairobi WSF 2007
The activities of the Nairobi WSF have been registered in nine (9) categories, called thematic terrains. These
1. Building a world of peace, justice, ethics and respect for diverse spiritualities
2. Liberating the world from the domination of multinational and financial capital
3. Ensuring universal and sustainable access to the common goods of humanity
4. Democratizing knowledge and information
5. Ensuring dignity, defending diversity, guaranteeing gender equality and eliminating all forms of discrimination
6. Guaranteeing economic, social and cultural rights, especially the rights to food, healthcare, education, housing, employment and decent work
7. Building a world order based on sovereignty, self-determination and rights of the peoples
8. Constructing a people-centered and sustainable economy
9. Building real democratic political structures and institutions with people’s participation on decisions and control of public affairs and resources
These thematic terrains were fixed during the ESF International Council's Methodology and Content commissions meeting in Nairobi, on September 4 and 5, 2006 on the basis of previous consultations.
