Know and learn. Avoid simplicities and static visions. Address the complexity of the whole. Debate. Dialogue. Reflect. Visibilize. Build. These are the pillars that support the Social Forum of Rototom Sunsplash. A space to listen and speak, without thematic limits, about culture, environment, economy, human rights, peace, social movements. About conflicts. About political and humanitarian crises, but also about their solutions and alternatives. About the present and the future. About realities that coexist on the same planet and which are sometimes unknown to us. All this, with the help of experts, be they anonymous or not. The frontline protagonists, those people who bet on change, a change of course. Those who are the driving force behind those other possible worlds.
Many names have passed through the different editions of the Social Forum. Desde las Nobel de la Paz Rigoberta Menchu and Shirin Ebadi, as well as the most recent person to be recognised by the Swedish Academy and to come to the festival: Mohamed Ben Cheikh, en la edición 2017, el ideólogo de la modernidad y sociólogo Zygmunt Bauman, la activista medioambiental Vandana Shiva, el economista y politólogo egipcio Samir Amin, Christian Felber (economista austríaco e ideólogo de la Economía del Bien Común), junto a un amplio elenco de periodistas como la egipcia Mona Eltahawy, la israelí Amira Hass, los españoles Ignacio Ramonet (director de Le Monde Diplomatique) y la excorresponsal de RTVE Rosa María Calaf, el italiano Giulietto Chiesa y Sami Al-Ajj, periodista de Al-Jazeera.
Many other voices join them, representatives of different social movements, groups, professions and ideologies, adding diversity and plurality to this space for debate.
