This May, the G7 will hold its annual Summit in Hiroshima, Japan. The G7 countries (US, Canada, UK, France, Germany, Italy and Japan with the European Union in observer status) represent the world’s rich and powerful minority. It is an institution of global economic and political supremacy over the world’s peoples. G7 members account for over half of global net wealth (over US$200 trillion) but only 10% of the world’s population.
JOIN US on MAY 12 to find out how the G7 impacts rural peoples across the globe—and why it is imperative to resist the G7’s imperialist agenda in FOOD, LAND, AND CLIMATE.
