  1. World economy, development finance and labour
  2. Common goods
  3. Food sovereignty and agriculture
  4. Global governance
  5. Climate change and the environment

The following cross-cutting issues were also raised:

  • Accountability through democratic institutions
  • Not punishing the victims
  • Need for systemic change
