Second day at the European Social Forum in Malm twoo (Sweden) and we are thinking of moving some of our stalls to a different place. Till now, Amnesty International main stalls have been at the Baltiska hall, one of the four venues where activities as part of this forum are taking place. Unfortunately, the Baltiska hall is far away from the city centre and no many people are passing by.

Some of our volunteers left this morning to the other venues and central locations in the city to gather support for the actions that we are promoting. Primarily, these days we are collecting signatures against discrimination against Roma in Slovakia and Italy, as well a petition to French President Sarkozy to end rendition and secret detention.

Meanwhile, we have decided to move to a different venue, together with some of the organizations at the Baltiska hall. We will update the blog with more news from the forum as soon as we get a chance…
