Wir möchten euch Unterstützer*innen auf der Balkanroute einladen an diesem Wochenende in Göttingen zusammenzukommen, zu erzählen, Erfahrungen auszutauschen und zu reflektieren was in den letzten Monaten passiert ist, was die Menschen auf der Flucht geschafft haben, was wir geleistet haben, wie die Politik reagiert hat, was sich verändert hat…
Gleichzeitig möchten wir die Gelegenheit nutzen um uns untereinander besser zu vernetzen und Informationen auszutauschen.
Und wir möchten euch einladen (auch mithilfe von Inputs durch Aktivist*innen) gemeinsam zu überlegen wie und was wir in Zukunft weitermachen können um Menschen zu unterstützen und Grenzen zu überwinden wie z.B. politische Aktionen, No border camps/tours, mobile Küchen, sichere Orte für Refugees, Hausbesetzungen, Notruftelefone, Autokonvois, aktive Fluchthilfe, Infonetzwerke für Aktivist*innen und für Refugees, eine internationale Balkanrouten-Vernetzungs-Konferenz im Frühjahr, nachhaltiger Aktivismus/“Self-Care“, …

Mögliche weitere Themen:
– dealing with (closed) borders, the new restrictive laws against refugees and the attempts of authorities to divide refugees into ›good‹ and ›bad‹
– Refugee self-organization, the situation and struggles at the EU-borders and the positive achievements of the Refugee Struggle so far
– The situation, demands and struggles of women refugees and migrants
– deportations and mistreatment of refugees
– ›Living‹ conditions in the refugee camps
– squats and communities for people to gather in solidarity
– active support (also for illegalized people)
– reports from other meetings and conferences
– informations about the situation in the destination and transit countries to refugees
– criminalization of active support of illegalized people and reaction
– Perspective of our common activism and organisation –> idea: bigger open source plattform to upload reports, updates, information and exchange –> how to get ourselves better connected to each other?
– discuss idea of a following balkan conference –> closer & sustainable network between activists among all balkan countries
– self care & sustainability of NoBorder activism (out of action…)
– evtl. invitation of people with experiences: e.g.Fluchthelfer.inor frombalkanroute.bordermonitoring
– The increasing racist attacks and possible reactions on the formation of racist vigilant groups
– Racism against Muslims and Roma/Sinti
– …its up to you!

Lasst uns ein Netzwerk aus Solidarität aufbauen und alle Grenzen niederreissen!!!
solidarity has no borders!

We would like to invite you supporters on the balkan route to come together, tell your stories and experiences, reflect on what happened the last months, what refugees achieved, what we were able to do, how politics reacted, what changed…
At the same time we would like to use the opportunity to connect in a better way and to exchange informations.
And we invite you (maybe also through „Inputs“ from activists) to think about how and what we can do in the future to keep supporting people, to overcome borders. For example: political action, no border camps/tours, mobile kitchens, safe spaces for refugees, squats, emergency phones, car-konvois, active help for refugees on their way, info-networks for activists and refugees, an international balkan-route-conference in spring, „Self-Care“, ….

Other possible topics:
– dealing with (closed) borders, the new restrictive laws against refugees and the attempts of authorities to divide refugees into ›good‹ and ›bad‹
– Refugee self-organization, the situation and struggles at the EU-borders and the positive achievements of the Refugee Struggle so far
– The situation, demands and struggles of women refugees and migrants
– deportations and mistreatment of refugees
– ›Living‹ conditions in the refugee camps
– squats and communities for people to gather in solidarity
– active support (also for illegalized people)
– reports from other meetings and conferences
– informations about the situation in the destination and transit countries to refugees
