Last night's violence in Epping is the desperate cry of people who have been ignored for decades, says David Shipley. Violence must be condemned. But if the state doesn?t change course, and fast, we will see many Eppings.

From vaccine passports in 2021 to 'Britcard' digital ID in 2025, it's becoming clear we need a Digital Bill of Rights to protect us from being brought under the technocratic grip of a surveillance state, says Alan Miller.

offsite link Why is Modernity so Ugly? Fri Jul 18, 2025 11:00 | Joanna Gray
Why is the modern world so unremittingly ugly, wonders Joanna Gray. As yet another interchangeable block of beige bricks springs up in town, the contrast with the glories of the structures our ancestors built is damning.

Galway Training Days on the Injustice of Debt in the Global South

category galway | miscellaneous | event notice author Tuesday April 29, 2008 10:57author by Nessa Ní Chasaide - Debt and Development Coalition Irelandauthor phone 01 8571828 / 091 530590 Report this post to the editors

Why not take this great opportunity to get up to speed on the injustice of the debt problem in the Global South?

This training course is divided into two sessions and will provide participants with a detailed understanding of the debt problem in the Global South, including a full update on the current situation and lots of ideas of what can be done from Ireland to tackle the problem. The course will equip participants to analyse responsibilities in the debt crisis, learn about the current focus of the global debt cancellation movement and discuss what activists in Ireland can do to tackle the problem.

Session 1: Will be a half-day training focusing on reviewing progress toward debt cancellation so far, and charting out the many unresolved issues in the current debt cancellation debate.

Resource person: Nessa Ní Chasaide (Co-ordinator Debt and Development Coalition Ireland)

Session 2: Will be an evening discussion with Lidy Nacpil, the leading debt cancellation activist from the Philippines who has co-ordinated the debt cancellation movement across the Global South for many years. Lidy will provide her unique insights into the challenges facing Southern activists working on the debt issue and outline what kind of solidarity Southern activists are calling for from the rich world.

It is hoped that after both sessions, participants will feel confident in discussing the debt problem with others and inspired to continue their involvement with the issue.

Course Fee: DDCI / Galway OWC Members: €10 Euro;
Non-members: €15; Unemployed / Asylum seekers: free
