Climate Justice Action Assembly
Waar: NieuwLand, Pieter Nieuwlandstraat 93, Amsterdam, Netherlands
Wanneer: 15/01/2016 - 18:00
In the follow up of the mobilisations around the UN climate summit in Paris (COP21) we are calling for a 'Climate Justice Action Assembly' from Friday evening the 15th to Sunday afternoon the 17th of January.
The idea of this weekend is to co-create an open grass-roots meeting to reflect on the state of the (Dutch) climate justice movement post-COP21 and refine our strategy and action plans for the coming months.
Besides participating in the Ende Gelande 2016, what should be our next steps? A Climate Games 2016? A Climate Camp? Mass civil disobedience? Should we target the Groningen gas extraction or the coal port and the Nuon coal fired power station in the Amsterdam harbor? All of the above? Or do you have creative ideas of a different kind? Let's discuss and decide together.
Because regardless of the outcomes of the Paris climate talks, we know we have to continue building this movement. After all, nobody is going to protect the climate for us —we are the ones we have been waiting for!
Program:
- Friday evening will be an informal event, where we will share a dinner look back to the story so far, learn from past successes and look forward to what we can expect beyond the COP21 in Paris.
- On Saturday we will start the discussion about post-COP21 mobilisations.
- On Sunday we will relax the mind with some material making, creating awesome banners and flags to be used in upcoming actions.
