Cambridgeshire, United Kingdom

Share The World’s Resources is teaming up with Cambridge Homeless Outreach Programme and Cambridge University Amnesty International to outline the case for achieving the United Nation's longstanding vision of "better standards of life in larger freedom".  

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights turns 70 this year, but few people are aware of its radical implications for achieving a better world. In this talk by Share The World's Resources (STWR), a political campaigning group based in London, we will discuss the contemporary relevance of the United Nations founding document of human rights - particularly its 25th Article, which proclaims the right of everyone to an adequate standard of living.

Article / 9th October 2018

When the global financial crisis resurfaces, we the people will have to fill the vacuum in political leadership. It will call for a monumental mobilisation of citizens from below, focused on a single and unifying demand for a people’s bailout across the world.

Report / 17th July 2018

Wir sind so lange nicht in der Lage uns ein ernsthaftes neues ökonomisches Paradigma für die Verwaltung der gemeinsamen Ressourcen der Erde vorzustellen, bis wir nicht zuerst die Notwendigkeit einer psychosozialen Transformation in unserem Bewusstsein erfassen. 

Article / 15th June 2018

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights is one of the most translated and celebrated documents in the world, marking its 70th anniversary this year. But relatively few people are aware of the significance of its 25th Article, which proclaims the right of everyone to an adequate standard of living.

Article / 15th May 2018

What are the political implications of meeting the established human right for everyone to enjoy an adequate standard of living? In short, it necessitates a redistribution of wealth and resources on an unprecedented scale across the world, which is why activists should resurrect the United Nations’ radical vision for achieving Article 25.

Report / 4th May 2018

Throughout 2017 STWR continued to strengthen and promote our case for global economic sharing, particularly in relation to our core advocacy position as an organisation. All of our work related to the need for a united people’s voice that speaks on behalf of the least advantaged, giving the highest priority to the prevention of extreme human deprivation across the world.

Article / 29th April 2018

Come possiamo creare la consapevolezza che la condivisione è la soluzione alla crisi planetaria, e la nostra speranza per recuperare un mondo diviso? Il nocciolo di questa domanda è il problema degli “ismi”, che sono l’intellettualizzazione del nostro auto-compiacimento che così giustifica e normalizza la sua esistenza.

Article / 22nd January 2018

Con l’aggravarsi della crisi economica, la principale responsabilità dei governi è ridisegnare i nostri sistemi politici ed economici in modo che nessuno muoia di fame. Ma questo non accadrà mai senza un’esplosione di sostegno pubblico senza precedenti.

Article / 24th December 2017

È arrivata l’ora in cui dobbiamo manifestare in milioni non contro questo o quello, ma piuttosto per chi siamo

Article / 20th December 2017

The holiday period provides us with a unique opportunity to express the new awareness that must inform a less commercialised and sharing-oriented world. Rather than spending all our time partaking in conspicuous consumption, why don’t we commemorate Christmas by organising massive gatherings for helping the poor and healing the environment?

Article / 4th December 2017

Tu ed io costituiamo il sistema stesso che incolpiamo per i problemi del mondo, illustrato chiaramente a Natale quando derubiamo la nostra fragile terra nei negozi del centro in nome di Gesù. Quale modo migliore per celebrare la nascita di Cristo quest’anno che unirsi sotto la bandiera della libertà e della giustizia e dimostrare pacificamente per porre fine alla fame e alla povertà in tutto il mondo.
