The NO BORDER CAMP IN BRUSSELS follows the tradition of No Border camps, organised all over the world since the 90s. Neither a normative frame, nor an organization, the No Border Camp is most of all a meeting, a convergence of struggles aiming to end the system of borders that dived us all.
Like in Calais or Lesbos in 2009 it’s about building a temporary and autonomous space of living, thinking, sharing (experiences, skills, information, analysis,…) actions concerning the questions of borders, migration and the right of freedom of movement and to chose the place where you want to live
OUR BASIC PRINCIPLES ARE:
- No one is illegal!
- No borders, no nations!
- Equal rights for everybody!
- Freedom of movement and settlement!
- Against capitalist and authoritarian systems that are the origin of forced exile, wars and misery.
WHY IN BRUSSELS?
Belgium will take presidency of the European council from July 1st until 21st of December 2010. As the capital of Europe Brussels is the symbol of the development of the European (anti-) migration policy
In reality the European union is, since over 10 years) more and more closing it’s doors for migrants, constructing a real fortress Europe. Europe tightens the repression (forcing people into clandestine existence, raids , locking people up and expulsing "people without papers") that is already enforced by Belgium and the different member states.
So Europe is organising, with the help of Frontex (European agency organising the operational cooperation at the exterior borders) border patrols, helicopters, boats, and it shifts it’s frontiers towards Azia and Africa by financing states (from Ukraine up to Marocco) to enforce the prevention of migration in its name.
By organising a no border camp in Brussels we want to question this (anti-) migration policy
WHEN IN BRUSSELS?
- The construction of the camp will be from September 24th until September 26th 2010.
- Activities will start on September 27th and will continue until October 3thd.
- On Saturday October 2nd a big manifestation is planned.
During this week we would like to see Brussels swarming with different activities about (anti-) migration policy and it’s consequences. The camp is also offering the opportunity to fight together with different action strategies, but also to build up a longue term dynamic We invite all (individuals or collectives) to participate as they see fit and to propose their own activities or cooperations.
