Internal training event on sustainable activism on 03 – 13 July

In the beginning of July there’s going to be an internal training on the meadow. Internal is supposed to say, that the GruBiT is not directed at the general public, but at Hambi activists, “Hambi veterans” and regular (or former) supporters. It’s going to be similar to a skillsharing camp with a central topic, which is “sustainable activism” in a broader sense – that is, strategies that help to become stay active and effective for longer times. We’re calling the event “GruBiT”; that’s an abbreviation of the german name “Gruppen-Bildungs-Treffen”, which can be translated as “group-buildung-meeting” or “group-education-meeting”.

You are or know “internal people”?
Then please ask for the invitation-email and the concept. Just send a mail with “GruBiT” in the subject to: hambacherforst@nullriseup.net
If you have contact data of people, who haven’t been around for a while, it would be especially great to get them informed – probably they are the ones that will be the most difficult for us to get informed.

Please QUICKLY notify us, whether you’re going to come!

Non public visit of a judge on the occupied meadow

He had a close look at the meadow occupation, accompanied only by a secretary and a photographer for documentation purposes (Thanks for this confidence, the numerous police vans, however, which stood around the corner, would not have been necessary). The administrative order of Düren County, which is the cause of the trial, is already several years old.
