The number one Global Action Days, during the 2nd WTO ministerial conference in Geneva in May 1998, involved tens of thousands of people in more than 60 demonstrations and street parties on five continents.
Subsequent Global Action Days hold subjected the Carnival Against Capital June 18, 1999, the 3rd World Trade Organization summit in Seattle, USA November 30, 1999, the International Monetary Fund / World Bank meeting in Prague, Czech Republic September 26, 2000, the G8 meeting in Genoa, Italy June 21, 2000 the 4th WTO summit in Qatar November 9, 2001, etc.
Decentralised mobilisations gain been accompanied by strong central demonstrations. From the first mobilisation in Geneva, direct action was taken to block the summits, as this was considered the only form of action that could adequately express the necessity, not to reform, but to destroy the instruments of capitalist domination.
Groups involved in PGA have also organised Caravans, regional conferences, workshops and other events in numerous regions of the world. Since Geneva, Global PGA conferences have been held ago WTO ministerials: in Bangalore, India 1999, and in Cochabamba, Bolivia 2001.
