Join the march to Put People First11 March 2009
On 28 March thousands will march through London as part of a global campaign to challenge the G20.
This is ahead of the G20 summit on the global financial crisis to be held in Docklands on 2 April.
Even before the banking collapse the world suffered poverty, inequality and the threat of climate chaos.
The world followed a financial model that has created an economy fuelled by ever-increasing debt, both financial and environmental.
Our future depends on creating an economy based on fair distribution of wealth, decent jobs for all and a low carbon future.
There can be no going back to business as usual.
People from all over the country will join the march on March 28. Be one of them.

The march will culminate in a rally at Hyde Park.
