What’s SoS? A simple thing. A beautiful thing. A way to share your stuff with others... while meeting physically, having a chat and generally enjoying the view.

You are already doing it! Everyone shares information and copies stuff for each other as gifts (legally, of course). Organising a Shivers of Sharing meeting is an opportunity to take that activity out and do it in public venues. Shivers of Sharing are already spreading accross Europe. Kuda in Novi Sad, Serbia will be hosting SoS Novi Sad #1 some time between 21-22 March 2005. Next London SoS is scheduled for 27 March 2005. More here

The Festival of Dissent!

Lanarkshire, April 6-10, 2005

A chance to form networks of
resistance... A chance to plot, conspire, and dream about resistance to
the G8... To meet people learn skills, share information, practice direct
action, and party together.


The G8 is the annual meeting of the leaders of the worlds most powerful
countries. It is a major symbol of capitalism: a summit where rich
governments plan how to stay rich. Since 1998, these summits have been
resisted wherever they have attempted to meet. Protests have erupted on
every continent, fuelled by the extremes of wealth and poverty, by
military repression, and by environmental breakdown. In July 2005, the G8
comes to the UK.

Call for a Second European Day of Action
For Freedom of Movement and the Right to Stay

May 1, 2005

Last year a European Day of Action against detention centers and for the legalization of undocumented migrants was launched during the European Social Forum in Paris. A call was subscribed to by many different networks and groups, and on the 31st of January 2004 demonstrations and actions were held in more than forty European cities. It was an important day in the development of a networking process among migrants‚ struggles and activists on a European level.

This year we want to make a step forward. We propose to all European networks and social movements to join in the organization of a second day of action, to be held on April 2nd 2005, centered upon the claim for freedom of movement and the right to stay as an alternative to the European constitutional process.
