Book Presentation: Agriculture without animal exploitation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The reason agriculture and rural social movements have so much \nrevolutionary potential is because they have resistance and autonomy \ningrained in them. This allows them to take control of the fundamental \nmeans of production of all that we use for food, shelter, clothing and \nmedicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But how can we meet our basic needs without being exploited, exploiting other humans or animals or destroying ecosystems?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This text will therefore focus on the practical, social and political\n feasibility of agriculture without animal exploitation. This subject is\n largely unknown and often ignored and under-referenced. All this \ndespite the fact that plenty of both practical and theoretical data is \nreadily available that shows that, on arable land, livestock farming is \nnot necessary in order to produce the food we depend on!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And just to be clear, from an anti-domination perspective we cannot and do not want to reform livestock farming. Whether it happens in factories or in the garden, whether the goal is commercial or with self-sufficiency in mind; a cage is a cage, whatever its size, its shape or chain length.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Book presentation : An Oasis in a Desert of Order<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Cook together, eat together? For more than 20 years the Sch\u00fclerInnenKoordination SIKB (students coordination) distributed free meals in Bern \u2013 the Gassenk\u00fcche. The book Oase in einer W\u00fcste der Ordnung (An Oasis in a Desert of Order) lets those activists have their say. Short extracts will be read during the book presentation and former activists will talk about their experiences and answer any questions. The issues the Gassenk\u00fcche was built around (public space, repression and policies on drugs, expulsion law or now the police law) are still hot topics and will form part of the open discussion following the presentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WORKSHOP: Autonomy and forest gardens<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Growing and harvesting food is important for resilience \nand longevity in any autonomous project. Forest gardens are man-made \necosystems that mimic the ecological patterns of a natural woodland. It \nis meant to produce as much diverse produce as possible, for as long as \npossible. North-facing balconies, raised beds, squatted zones, abandoned\n land can be transformed according to our needs. In this workshop we \nwill look at how to set up and maintain our own easy-life, no-dig, and \nversatile forest garden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ROUND TABLE: Community Supported Agriculture<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Autonomy, collectivization of the means of production and self-regulation in agriculture: a practical vision with three different CSA projects. How do the three projects try to implement these anarchist elements and what challenges do they face? How can solidarity and ecology be part of agriculture? After a short introduction of the CSA projects, these questions will be discussed at round tables with the participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

14.00 \u2013 16.00:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

PRESENTATION: GMOs and Technology in Agriculture<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Today\u2019s agriculture is defined by the monopolisation of both seeds (whether genetically modified or not) and technical solutions intended to make farmers\u2019 lives easier.
What does such a concentration of power mean for the kind of autonomous communities we hope to build? What developments in genetic engineering and agricultural technology can we expect to see in Switzerland? How will these developments be promoted?
This presentation will try to answer these questions and encourage a constructive discussion about possible solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WORKSHOP: Medical plants<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We are surrounded by plants, many of which have medical properties \nthanks to various active substances. In this workshop you will have the \nopportunity to learn about and identify some of the most important \nactive substances and to gain an insight into their healing powers. We \nwill also discuss other issues such as how to gather plants, preparing \nherbal medicines, and storage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PRESENTATION: The 15th Garden \u2013 a revolutionary network for food sovereignity in Syria<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The 15th Garden is a bottom-up network of urban gardens in cities \nthat have been bombed, besieged and blocked in Syria. The network \nincludes family gardens, farmers in rural areas, and agriculture \ninitiatives in refugee camps in neighbouring states.
\nThe network has developed fast during the past years. The involved \nfarmers, gardeners and activists are not willing to stay passive while \nwhat they call the biggest humanitarian disaster of recent history is \ntaking place. The farmers\u2019 movement with its practical skills is ready \nto stand by all the people who are affected by the war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Via the 15th Garden open pollinated seeds are swapped and reproduced \nin and around Syria, skills for sustainable agriculture and gardening \nare taught in workshops and courses, and knowledge is shared about the \ndangers related to the promises made by agribusiness actors. Commonly \nand without sectarian division a movement of food sovereignty is created\n and defended. The 15th Garden is increasingly important for the Syrian \ncivil society, the still living part of a revolutionary will for change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DISCUSSION: Working in the fields<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Long working-days, hard work, low wages: the labour conditions in \nagriculture are mainly bad, legal protection is weak. Some live and work\n in Switzerland, others have to undertake long journeys to get to their \nseasonal work place and in winter go to the countries to stay with \nfamily and friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And big parts of the population profit of these conditions, but mainly it is big enterprises and supermarkets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here we want to talk about our experiences and discuss the labour \nconditions. The aim is an exchange on organisational opportunities for \nagricultural workers*. How is the labour, what are the difficulties?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What do we need? And what do we need to do? Also we wish for an \nexchange on examples of alternative labour organising in the food \nindustry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are you working in agriculture or are you interested in questions of organization?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How can we get the capacity to act in solidarity? You are invited to share your experiences and your dreams with us!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WORKSHOP: Anarchism = Antispeciesism<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

What you\u2019re an anarchist but not an antispeciesist ? What, seriously?!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From vegan collective kitchens to more and more friends becoming \nantispeciesists, animal exploitation is increasingly being called into \nquestion in anti-authoritarian spaces. Although it\u2019s frequently the \nsubject of heated debate, it\u2019s often only the practical issues that end \nup being discussed, with the truly fundamental points left untouched.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This discussion will take the form of an interactive workshop, and we\n will explore the clear links between anarchism and antispeciesism \ntogether.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WORKSHOP:  Is it hunger or a lifestyle choice?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Health food, cervelat, organic, vegan, chocolate, fairtrade, freegan, avocado. Is it hunger or a lifestyle? \u2013 Trying to eat an anticolonial diet.
\nWe will go on an interactive journey through the world of food. When were certain foods included in our diet? What grows in our fields? We will try to replace the madness of a global food network with locally grown food !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PRESENTATION: SOS Rosarno<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In January 2010 the so-called revolt of Rosarno showed the whole world the inhumane conditions in which the tomatoes and oranges which end up on our tables everyday are harvested. In response to this the first campaign \u00ab SOS Rosarno \u2013 citrus fruits and oil to feed sustainability and rights \u00bb was launched, involving small producers. This evolved into the project SOS Rosarno, which unites small producers and consumers, Italians and migrants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WORKSHOP: Questioning our practice of autonomy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In this workshop we would like to share thoughts and visions around \nbuilding up an autonomous food supply and creating food production \nstructures using concrete examples. Our aim is to become conscious of \nthe contradictions and challenges which arise whenever we try to build \nup and defend food autonomy within the limitations of a capitalist \nworld.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WORKSHOP: Hangry Zine project<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Presentation of the Hangry Zine project, followed by a creative workshop on body image and body normativity.
\nOur daily life is full of norms, and even though many norms are called into question in activist circles, body norms are all too rarely an talked about. During this workshop, you are invited to talk about this topic any way you like \u2013 collages, poetry, texts, drawings\u2026 At the end, you can keep what you did for yourself or share it (anonymously) with the other participants.
\nWe provide materials for handicrafts, writing and drawing as well as inspiration for writing.
\nA little infokiosk with zines and books will be made available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ROUND TABLE: Collective Farming: What, why and how?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A round table discussion about collective farming projects. Moving to\n the countryside and embracing an autonmous way of life is a dream for \nmany. It is, however, often complicated to put such a dream into \npractice \u2013 it can be hard to start a collective and keep it going, to \ndeal with state regulations and to survive economically. Several \ncollectives have been invited to talk about the many practical aspects \nof collective rural life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This discussion is for everyone who ever had any questions, urges, \ndifficulties or dreams about living and farming collectively in the \ncountryside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
