The annual date of the most important European Solidarity Movement with

Faculty of Information Sciences. Complutense University of Madrid.
The European Conference for support and Solidarity with the Saharawi
People (EUCOCO)
has been there since 1975, every year in a different European city:
Paris, Barcelona, Rome, Valencia, Brussels, Modena, Vitoria-Gasteiz…
The EUCOCO is, without a doubt,
the most important annual meeting of the
European Solidarity Movement with the Saharawi People,
which has little by
little gained a global scale. Although the word European is still used, EUCOCO welcomes
people from all over the world.
Government representatives that recognize the SADR, national and international elective
representatives and members of parliaments, regional governments, town councils of
Spain, political and Trade Union organizations, associations of friends of the Saharawi
people, NGOs in general, jurists, personalities from the cultural world… All of them
participate every year in this
mandatory MEETING on SOLIDARITY.
So does, at the highest level, the Saharawi people, represented by the President of the
SADR and Secretary-General of the Polisario Front with other authorities of the Saharawi
Government, as well as Human Rights activists, Saharawi ambassadors and delegates in
different countries.
After the two last editions that were held in Seville and Rome, respectively, this year
Madrid will be the city that holds the 39
th
EUCOCO.
The Spanish capital,
characterized by its hospitality and heterogeneity, will constitute a decisive
meeting point for the international community efforts to advance towards the
peaceful settlement of the conflict, coordinating the support to the Saharawi
people in their way to FREEDOM.
