New Issue of Panorama : Global Financial Crisis
Even though our national economies are interconnected in a globalized system, changes to this system effect us differently. The current issue of Panorama is all about the Global economic downturn and the effects it is having on people around the world. Check out our featured articles written by TIG members in Uganda, Brazil, Canada and
Liberia.

Action Alert : Stop Dump Site 41
A pristine aquifer in Simcoe County, Ontario is being drained to make room for the construction of a landfill. Instead of meaningful investment in waste reduction and recycling programs, local authorities are moving forward with construction plans, against the wishes of local populations.

Dialogue Change : Child Labour
In preparation of the June 12th International Day Against Child Labour, TakingITGlobal and the International Labour Organization are encouraging you to dialogue for change! To celebrate the 10th anniversary of Convention 182 on Child Labour we want to collect artwork which reflects your thoughts on how we can put an end to child labour. Get involved by joining the Discussion on Dialogue Change Project, or Submit your artwork to the Global Gallery.

We wish you a wonderful week!

- Liam, Kimia, Rachel, Sulmaz and the entire TakingITGlobal Team!
