Intercontinental Camp
for Solidarity and Resistance
15th - 20 th June - Cologne 1999
This camp parallel to the G7+1 summit in Cologne will host the
InterContinental Caravan and welcomes all activists wanting to come to
Cologne to protest against the current world economic order based on the
exploitation of people and the planet.
The camp will offer basic infrastructure
(camping space, kitchen, fire place, stage, water, toilets and
an info tent).
The camp is self organised so we expect you to
help taking over general tasks and help shaping the
activities.
You are welcome to come early to help puttin up tents and help
with the general infrastructure.
It will be a place to plan actions and meet interesting people from all
over the world.
The camp runs together with a kurdish initiative which built up a
traditional kurdish village as protest.
