    Global Spring has just started in Lisbon (Part III)

    By TTeixeira  |  Posted May 13, 2012  |  Lisbon
     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     TTeixeira says the people several Occupy movements from across the world have called for a 'Global Spring.' She says the goal of the movement is to grab the global community's attention on economic inequalities and social injustices. 'Portugal is coming across the same difficulties that Spain, Greece and other European countries are facing. No jobs, taxes increase, salary cuts, and other austerity measures,' she says. 'There are sick people that cannot afford the public health care and students are giving up on their courses and leaving universities. People are really concerned about their future.'
    - jmsaba, CNN iReport producer
