Description
Transeuropa Forum : Imagine ! Demand ! Enact ! An Alternative Europe
Berlin | 25-27 October 2013
Dear friends,
European Alternatives kindly invites you to the Transeuropa Forum, the highlight of this year's Transeuropa Festival.
Three days refusing the new European normality! Six years into the financial crisis, Europe is closer and closer to being a post-democracy, in which even imagining progressive alternatives becomes more and more difficult. Closing Transeuropa Festival 2013 throughout Europe, this forum is a call to enact a different Europe from the bottom up through a radicalised form of citizenship. From art interventions to the elaboration of a citizens’ manifesto and deciding common actions for the coming months, we create a space to Imagine, Demand and Enact an alternative Europe.
The Opening event will take place at Allianz Kulturforum on 25 October 2013 and is open for registration now.
