*What is the Initiative People’s Agenda for Alternative Regionalisms?*

The initiative People’s Agenda for Alternative Regionalisms, involves
regional alliances such as Hemispheric Social
Alliance<http://www.asc-hsa.org/>(Latin America), Southern
African People’s Solidarity Network- SAPSN <http://www.sapsn.org/> (Southern
Africa), Solidarity for Asian People’s Advocacy – SAPA
<http://www.asiasapa.org/>(South East Asia), People’s
SAARC<http://peoplesaarc.blogspot.com/>(South Asia) as well as
organisations and networks in Europe, including Transnational
Institute (TNI) <http://www.tni.org/>, that struggle for “Another Europe”.
These networks and the organisations part of them, share a strong commitment
on the need to RECLAIM the regions, RECREATE the processes of regional
integration and ADVANCE people-centered regional alternatives.

The People’s Agenda for Alternative Regionalisms is an effort to promote
cross-fertilisation of experiences on regional alternatives among social
movements and civil society organisations from Asia, Africa, Latin America
and Europe and contribute to the understanding of alternative regional
integration as a key strategy to struggle against neoliberal globalisation
to broaden the base among key social actors for political debate and action
around regional integration.

Specifically, it aims to build trans-regional processes to develop the
concept of “people’s integration”, articulate the development of new
analyses and insights on key regional issues, expose the problems of
neoliberal regional integration and the limits of the export-led integration
model, share and develop joint tactics and strategies for critical
engagement with regional integration processes as well as the development of
people’s alternatives.
