The Global Day To Fight Inequality 2026 is happening on 4th July and you're invited to be part of it!
The Alliance seeks to strengthen the global movement against growing inequalities affecting livelihoods, wellbeing, and the planet. To this end, we are organizing an iconic gathering for the global inequality movement, uniting leading voices, organizations, and community leaders from the frontlines to learn, energize, build collective power, and establish a common path towards an economic model founded on equality, dignity, justice, and sustainability for all.
We will explore big questions
Networking night: to connect the movement and explore the intersections
A day for the dreamers and doers. Allowing ourselves to dream of the alternatives and making them happen.
Performance night: showcasing the diversity of cultures in the movement.
During the week of 27 June – 4 July, national alliances across the world will host events, assemblies, cultural programmes, and actions. Find what's happening in your country — or tell us you want to join.
