The Global Justice Now Scotland office was set up in 1999 to develop a specifically Scottish angle to our campaigns on global poverty. Global Justice Now is 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 believe that a better world is possible: a world where our resources and decisions about how the

We mobilise people in the UK for change, and act in solidarity with those fighting injustice, particularly in the global south. In January 2015 we changed our name from World Development Movement to Global Justice Now.

From AI slop to Uber Eats and driverless cars – Big Tech is shaping our futures – but is it a future we want?

Behind the clever apps and shiny new time saving devices is a resource grab: of data, land, energy, and critical materials. It’s creating huge wealth for the tech bros, but at whose expense?

Join our Scottish gathering in Edinburgh for some great speakers, and discussion about how we resist the monopoly power of the tech giants.

With:
• Nick Dearden , Global Justice Now
• Dr Samer Abdelnour, Senior Lecturer at Edinburgh University
• Dr Craig Dalzell, Head of Policy and Research, The Common Weal - a vision for a better Scotland
• Sarah Jaffe, reporter and writer covering labour and social movements in the U.S
• Rachel Revesz, journalist campaigning against hyperscale data centres in Scotland
