How to Workadventure

The whole Internationalism Festival°2 will take place in Workadventure. Here you can find a detailed instruction how it works. If you have technical difficulties, you can have a look at the pdf:

Behavior and togetherness in the workadventure during Internationalism Festival°2

We want all participants to treat each other with solidarity and respect. We use Workadventure so that, despite the online implementation, encounters are easier. However, not every participant wants to interact in the same way. Even if everything seems playful, the avatars are representing real people!

In this text you will learn everything you need to know about registration. First of all: You have to register via email before the festival to get the links to the online rooms and to participate in the whole festival.

You can also do that during the whole weekend!

You do not need to register for the individual events. Unless it is a workshop with a limited number of participants, then you will find a note in the event descriptions.

Registration:

Send us an email to anmeldung[ät]iz-dresden.org (PGP Key) from now on.
We don’t need any data from you, you don’t have to tell us your name etc.
We will send you the links shortly before the festival. Afterwards you can decide for yourself whether you want to participate in the events via WorkAdventure or directly via link in the online space (BigBlueButton, Jitsi etc.). Please indicate the need for translation in your email! Continue reading “Registration to Internationalism Festival°2”

Update: Online Festival! – But how?

The Internationalist Center is located in the building complex of the housing and cultural cooperative Zentralwerk. We actually wanted to hold the festival on this site. Due to the uncertain Corona situation, we had to make the decision to hold the festival online. Therefore we invite you to experience the Festival°2 with us in the online world of the Zentralwerk. For this we will use WorkAdventure together with you.

In addition to the various educational offerings, our festival should be a place to meet new people, to network, to simply get into conversation. But how is that supposed to work when everyone is at home behind their laptops, computers and smartphones and you can’t spontaneously meet at the bar or strike up a conversation in the exhibition?
For lectures, panels or workshops, we have all used many media in recent months, but getting to know each other usually came up short. That’s why we are organizing the Internationalism Festival°2 with WorkAdventure. Continue reading “Update: Online Festival! – But how?”

Update: Internationalism Festival°2 becomes Online Festival!

Due to the unpredictable situation of the Corona Pandemic and the resulting restrictions we decided with a heavy heart to let the Internationalism Festival°2 take place online. This means all lectures, workshops and other contributions will be offered online and you can participate from home. We regret this decision, because the festival is all about networking and exchange. Nevertheless, we cannot continue to hope that by June the situation will have improved so much that we will be able to hold the festival as we had hoped. We are trying to offer an online variant that will make participation varied and easily accessible. We will present you soon what exactly this looks like!
We also plan to continue networking and sharing beyond the festival weekend and catch up on parts of the program in the summer. One advantage is that people who are not from Dresden can participate more easily!

We will keep you informed about all further news!

Anarchist May Day in Dresden 

1st May | 2 pm | Artesischer Brunnen Albertplatz

We gladly share the call of the AND (Anarchist Network Dresden) for May 1st and see you on the street!

May 1st is historically an important day of the workers‘ movement. 150 years ago people gave their lives to fight for an 8-hour day. Today many people can’t do much with this day. They work isolated and „flexible“ in precarious jobs, they exploit themselves or are exploited.

The past year has shown us once again that capitalism is an unjust system. The Corona pandemic has further exacerbated this injustice. The crisis makes many people poor. Especially people who have worked in precarious jobs before. People who have become unemployed and can no longer finance their living. People who have no official employment contracts and are exposed to arbitrariness. Continue reading “Anarchist May Day in Dresden “

Ralley on March 15 – International Day against Police Violence!

Rally Day against Police Voilence | March 15 | 4 pm | Jorge Gomondai Square

We share the call of our anarchist friends an invite to the rally. The Initiative for Peace in Kurdistan will be there with speeches on the criminalization of Kurdish people in Dresden, Germany and Turkey.

We call on you, come to the rally on Monday, March 15, 2021 at 4 pm at George Gomondai Square!

The year 2020 was marked by the death of George Floyd and the discussion about police violence. However, this sad event was neither an isolated incident nor a new development. Police violence has existed as long as police have existed. Police stops and violence do not happen by chance. Mostly people who are affected are poor, people of color, black people, homeless people, young people, people who do not fit into gender norms, people with mental problems, political activists.

Police violence is structural – What does that mean? Continue reading “Ralley on March 15 – International Day against Police Violence!”

„None is free until all are free!“ – feminist anarchist antiprison ralley

We share the call of our friends of the AND:

When: 07.03.2021 at 3 pm
Where: on the parking lot in front of the prison in Chemnitz

Prison is a means for the state to deal with social problems. It is supposed to “resocialize” you. But you have hardly any opportunity for self-determination and you are isolated from the rest of the society. Every third person ends up there again after release, because it doesn’t help prisoners, but to secure the status quo. Prison is a violent and monotonous place. The authoritarian penal system reinforces discrimination and economic exploitation.

If you also think that prison cannot be a solution for individual and social problems, then come with us to Chemnitz Prison on 07.03.2021. There we want to get the prisoners a bit out of isolation, inform ourselves together about the conditions in prison and show our solidarity.
