People's Movements Converge for World Social Forum in Brazil 
-------------------------------------------------------------



As global elites gather in Davos, members of people's movements from
around the world have gathered in Brazil for the annual World Social
Forum. The World Social Forum is held as a counterweight to Davos under
the theme of "Another World Is Possible." This year's meeting is being
held in Brazil's Rio Grande do Sul, the site of the first World Social
Forum in 2001.
