In 2023 the United States Country Chapter of ILPS initiated the No to APEC Coalition, a coalition of over 155 organizations waging a campaign against the neoliberal policies of the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) which held its 2023 Summit in San Francisco.[6][7] The campaign culminated in a week of action from November 11, 2023 to November 17, 2023, beginning the week with a 9-hour Peoples' Counter Summit with the theme of “People and Planet Over Profit and Plunder” in which attendees and organizers discussed a range of topics including Palestinian liberation and neoliberal economic policies.[8]
