This action for the international students' day was combined with a protest against the parallely on going negotiations in the austrian parliament/government concerning the cuts in social services and education.
Some actresses and actors were desguised with masks of politicians as education zombies and the others more colorful as students. The performance included from a fog out coming education zombies, who scared the motivated students. In all this trouble the students finally caught the zombies with the banner "17.11. International Students' Day - free and emancypatory education".
Best wishes from vienna!

Even een foto van de protestactie hier in Nederland... zoek de verschillen...

In plaats van demonstreren lijkt het mij beter jezelf te begeven onder jongeren, en hen uit te leggen hoe het systeem werkt... misschien doen ze dan ook wel mee. ga gewoon eens een gesprek aan, met die jongeren uit sociale achterstandswijken... met jongeren op vmbo, doe informatiemiddagen, gewoon in overleg, via netwerkjes. schrijf hyves sites aan van scholen, dit werkt niet. het moderne protest gaat via internet, en daarna pas op straat. Maar dan moet je wel weten hoe je internet moet gebruiken. Alleen publiceren op indymedia, bereik je een zééééééér kleine groep mensen mee. En over die mensen kun je ook een behoorlijke twijfel hebben wat betreft integriteit en bewegingsredenen.
Schreeuwen werkt niet, uitleggen wel.
| | 23 nov. Actievergadering tegen bezuinigingen | Kritische Studenten Utrecht - 20.11.2010 16:13
Kritische Studenten Utrecht organiseert op dinsdag 23 november om 19.30 in de Rooie Rat, Oudegracht 65 een open actievergadering om plannen te maken voor acties tegen de bezuinigingsplannen van kabinet Rutte. Dit kabinet wil:
* bij meer dan 1 Jaar Studievertraging de OV Jaarkaart afschaffen;
* bij meer dan 1 Jaar Studievertraging het collegegeld verhogen met € 3.000;
* en wil je een Masterstudie volgen, dan krijg je GEEN studiefinanciering meer.
Hier gaan we niet meer akkoord. Sterker nog hier gaan we wat tegen doen. In Londen zijn 50.000 studenten tegen de bezuinigingen de straat op gegaan. Wat gaan wij in Utrecht, en Nederland doen?
Don’t panic, organize!
Kom op 23 nov. om 19.30 naar de Open Actievergadering van KSU
Boekhandel de Rooie Rat, Oudegracht 65
