is
pleased to announce a public lecture entitled:
 

  
 

 

"The

in the
South: the Pivotal Actor in the Struggle against Global Warming?" 
 

by 





Walden Bello

 

Distinguished Visiting
Professor




Walden Bello is the co-founder and executive director of Focus on the Global South and
a professor of sociology at the University of the Philippines. He
was given the 2003 Right Livelihood Award, also known as the Alternative
Nobel Prize, for "...for outstanding efforts in educating civil
society about the effects of corporate globalisation, and how
alternatives to it can be implemented."  The Belgian newspaper Le Soir
called Bello "the most respected anti-globalisation thinker in Asia." 
Canadian author Naomi Klein has called him the "world's leading
no-nonsense revolutionary." As a human rights and
peace campaigner, academic, environmentalist (former Chairman of the Board with Greenpeace Southeast Asia) and journalist, and
through a combination of courage as a dissident, with an extraordinary
breadth of published output and personal charisma, he has made a major
contribution to the international case against corporate-driven
globalisation.
