“Exit from the Left”
Last week, São Paulo became a meeting point for politicians, activists, researchers, journalists, organizers, and left movements from more than 25 countries, gathered around one urgent question: how do we confront the global rise of the far right?
Organized by the Rosa Luxemburg Stiftung, the conference created a rare space for internationalist exchange, disagreement, strategy, and collective political thinking beyond borders, at a time marked by war, authoritarianism, militarization, fascism, and deepening inequality.
Discussions throughout the conference touched on political organization, communication, labor struggles, feminism, anti-racism, internationalism, and the role of the left in an increasingly violent and fragmented global reality.
A special thank you to the Rosa-Luxemburg-Stiftung Regional Office Brazil & Paraguay for the incredible hosting of this year’s conference, and for the enormous political, organizational, and logistical work behind it.
As the TLV Office, we were especially glad to have Reem Hazzan joining the conference as a political participant.
At a moment when fear, militarization, and division are being organized globally, the left cannot afford isolation. International solidarity, political organization, and collective struggle across borders are not optional; they are necessary.
