DESCRIPTION:End COVID-19 Vaccine Apartheid International Activist Assembly\n\nJoin us 
 for a day of learning and organizing to end the COVID-19 global vaccine 
 apartheid!\n\nSat, 4 September 2021 @ 5:30 AM PT - 9:30 AM PT (1:30 PM -

 https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/activist-assembly-end-vaccine-apartheid-tickets-165401703949\n\nAs 
 rich countries drop pandemic measures with plentiful COVID-19 vaccines and 
 life returns to normal, the rest of the world is suffering with new deadly 
 waves of the virus. Only 1.5 % of Africa's population has had a jab. Yet, 
 the same rich nations are blocking other countries from accessing the 
 know-how to make their own vaccine.\n\nWe will hear from international 
 speakers from the African Alliance and Focus on the Global South. We will 
 also learn from the people behind Free the Vaccine in the US, medical 
 students organizing with UAEM globally and our own activists who delivered 
 brilliant actions pushing AstraZeneca here in the UK.\n\nThis will be a 
 chance to gather, inspire and organize together to ramp up our campaign in 
 the autumn.\n\nONLINE OPTION: Option to join via Zoom for at least parts of 
 the event. Please bear with us as we navigate this new 
 reality.\n\nSpeakers:\n\nFatima Hassan, Health Justice Initiative (South 
 Africa)\n\nSangeeta Shashikant, Third World Network\n\nNick Dearden, Global 
 Justice Now\n\nUniversities Allied for Essential Medicines\n\nStudents for 
 Global Health\n\nPeople's Action (US)\n\nand more\n\nABOUT: Global Justice 
 Now\n\nhttps://www.globaljustice.org.uk/\n\nWe are a democratic social 
 justice organisation working as part of a global movement to challenge the 
 powerful and create a more just and equal world. We mobilise people in the 
 UK for change, and act in solidarity with those fighting injustice, 
 particularly in the global south.\n\n
