Invitation for the 24th and 25th of October 2014 in Istanbul

Friday 24th, 6pm: A TRANSNATIONAL SPACE OF COMMON STRUGGLES IN ISTANBUL

Caferağa Mahalleevi, No 24 (Hacı Şükrü Sokak), 34710 Kadıköy

Different social struggles which took place in the past years in cities of Spain, Greece, Italy, Portugal, Germany, Bulgaria, UK, and Holland among others, animated the political space of Agora99. Agora99 is thought as a transnational space for connecting, networking and relating different experiences of the struggles for real democracy and right to the city, practices of self-management of hospitals and self-production in factories, collectives of precarious and indebted people, networks against infrastructure projects, media and technopolitics collectives, struggles for the freedom of movement and feminism, just to name a few.

These experiences invite Istanbul-based forums and groups to this meeting to have an open discussion, to share analysis and experiences, connect and imagine a common space of struggles. We would love to understand together which are our commonalities to shape a path of resistance and organization.

People linked to Fundación de los Comunes (Spain), Peoples Square Madrid (Spain), Dinamo Press and Esc Atelier from Rome (Italy), Global Project from Napoli (Italy), Interventionistische Linke (Germany), Gezi Solidarity Forum, Betaforum and 2Dh5 Festival (Netherlands), as well as transnational networks like Global Square will participate in the discussion.

9pm: screening of documentaries

Saturday 25th, 4pm – 9pm
