<div class="gmail_quote"> From: <a href="mailto:david.woodward@neweconomics.org">david.woodward@neweconomics.org</a><br> <br> <br>As you may know, there is much discussion about a new "Bretton Woods" process to reform the global economic system. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get real changes - but only if we can ensure that the interests of the world population as a whole are fully represented and reflected in the process itself.<br>
<br>If they can get away with it, the developed country governments will make sure that they run the process, so that it will deal with their problems without threatening their interests (including their dominance of global governance). It is imperative that we do everything we can to stop them doing this, and ensure an inclusive process with a broad agenda, to allow developing countries to address their concerns.<br>
<br>I can send you a civil society statement calling for such a process - signed by 600+ organisations so far. (For the latest list, see <a href="http://www.choike.org/bw2" target="_blank">www.choike.org/bw2</a> <<a href="http://www.choike.org/bw2" target="_blank">http://www.choike.org/bw2</a>> .) It has already been sent to the G20 leaders, but is still open for signatories, and will be presented again ahead of the Washington summit on 15 November. Please do sign up, and forward to anyone and everyone who might!<br>
