The date of the WSF 2011 event in Dakar, Senegal, has been set to 6-11 February. The event will take place in the university campus which allows room for up to 60,000 people (although further spaces are available should the registration show the need).
The International Council Meeting of the World Social Forum Mexico City, Mexico 5-7 May 2010, agreed that the Dakar WSF will revolve around three thematic axes:
- the analysis of the latest financial, economic and social crises;
- the convergence and encounter of the people's struggle against the effects of the crises, and
- the proposals for another way out of the crises centred on the values of solidarity, equity and justice.
