International Anti-Authoritarian Gathering
July 19-23
St-Imier, Switzerland
https://anarchy2023.org/en

On the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the first anti-authoritarian international, international meetings are being prepared in the Swiss Jura mountains. They will take place from July 19 to 23, 2023 – with an extension of a few days to allow time and space for spontaneous meetings. We are making this appeal to clarify the role of these meetings, that is to say our concrete motivations, as well as the way we wish to organize them.

In a world that seems to be increasingly neutralizing radical protest – between repression, recuperation and control – it seems necessary to meet physically, as anarchists. In order to reflect collectively on the issues that matter to us, and in particular on the political and social evolutions of the last few years, and to continue to deepen the critiques that emancipate us. In order to learn more about the concrete struggles that are taking place everywhere, told by those who lead them. To form new hopes for the future. To build strong links between different anti-authoritarian groups and individuals, to strengthen solidarity between struggles across borders. And to make new people want to join them.

Indeed, we want above all to talk about living struggles. It is not a question of commemorating a historical event, which would be meaningless if it were not linked to the daily lives of living people, to a real combative tension against the state and other forms of domination.

These meetings will therefore be an opportunity to share experiences, discuss strategy, and make your local struggles known. Whether they are feminist, environmentalist, anti-tech, anti-carceral, anti-border, anti-fascist, anti-capitalist, anti-racist and anti-militarist… What brings us together is the anti-authoritarian vision.

These meetings will be what you make of them. The activities are organized in a horizontal and decentralized way. In particular thanks to a large information board, which can be filled in by hand, on the spot, and also thanks to a participative online tool that you will find under organize.anarchy2023.org. Just add your proposal for an activity to the agenda now. The agenda will still be editable during the meetings. A large building will be dedicated to spontaneous activities, it will be self-managed.

During these four days, you will find meetings for groups sharing the same priorities (feminism, autonomous health, for example), practical workshops, discussions, and numerous and varied presentations. As you can see, there will be no official conferences, i.e. organized by the organizing committee. There will also be groups offering film screenings, a book fair and an anarchist radio. For the children, we point out that a mixed group will provide a nursery every day. Another group will provide a camping area with a separate space for women, transgender & non-binary people. Other groups will organize exhibitions, concerts, dances, etc. By the way: we will need many volunteers on site, you can sign up in advance or when you arrive!

More info on anarchy2023.org (the website is updated regularly).

Finally: we are aware that the organization of such an international event, in Switzerland, in the most expensive country on the planet, entails financial difficulties and difficulties with obtaining visas. To facilitate access, we will set up a carpooling platform. Most of the event will be either free of charge or “pay-what-you-can”, whether it is the camping, the meals organized by international cooking groups or the concerts. And don’t hesitate to contact us by mail at info@anarchy2023.org if you have any difficulties to get a visa.

Long live anarchy and see you soon!

FAQ
What do I need to do?

You don’t need to register or sign up in any way. There are no special requirements for you to be able to participate. Our only requirement is for you to be respectful towards others and peaceful.
How do I get to St-Imier?

Take a look at https:/map.anarchy2023.org and zoom out to see in which direction you want to be heading when joining us at Anarchy 2023 in St-Imier.

If you need to fly, you can fly into either Geneva (GVA), Basel (BSL) or Zurich (ZRH). Traveling from these three airports to St-Imier takes approximately the same amount of time. The easiest way to get from these airports to St-Imier is via train. You can check the train timetables on the https://www.sbb.ch/en website, where you can also buy “supersaver tickets” (approx. 30 CHF if done some weeks ahead of time).

For coordinating carpools we started to use https://carpooling.anarchy2023.org with the https://t.me/+guZcQIInJzc2OTk0 telegram group serving as an additional possible communication channel along side.

For visa and travel help please contact: visas@anarchy2023.org

Plan_saint_imier
Parking

Please, before coming to the gathering by car, consider more environment friendly options and car sharing. Use https://carpooling.anarchy2023.org to coordinate carpools. There will be designated parking areas that are signed out from the main roads in St-Imier. See the map at https:/map.anarchy2023.org to have an idea where the different parking places are located, but make sure to follow the directions indicated along the roads when you arrive in St-Imier. There is no cost for parking, but please contribute what you can to help cover the costs, the surplus will go to a good cause.
Where can I sleep?

There will be a designated camping area and indoor spaces in three gym halls and the ZAF, a large building at the edge of St-Imier. If you plan to camp, bring a tent and a sleeping bag. If you plan to sleep in the indoor spaces, bring a mat and a sleeping bag. To see where the camping, the ZAF and the gym halls are located, take a look at https:/map.anarchy2023.org

For information about additional options and general information about accommodation, including special needs solutions that are available, see the accommodation page.
How to propose workshops, film screenings, etc to be added to the day schedules?

To propose anything for inclusion in the schedule and get a space allocated, please use this form. If you have a preference for the day and time of your proposal, please add that information to your proposal. Also, list the required help, resources or technical infrastructure such as beamer, if any. Please don’t hesitate to propose activities for children and teenagers as well.
How can I volunteer my help?

Please sign up on http://ria2023-volunteers.org, an online tool for coordinating the many different volunteer tasks. Write to volunteers@anarchy2023.org if you have questions or need details about how you can help.
What food and drinks will be available?

There will be 2 kitchens and 4 bars located throughout the village. They offer vegan and also gluten free foods and refreshing beverages such as sirup and ice tea, energizing liquids like coffee and mate. Only the alcoholic beverages (e.g. beer, wine and prosecco) have a fixed minimal prize.
How much will this cost me?

Both the workshops and the camping are free. For concerts, food and non-alcoholic drinks you are expected to pay what you can, but there is no fixed price. Also alcoholic beverages are “pay what you can”, but with a minimal price. The book fair and expo tables have a fixed minimal price as well.

All income goes to covering the costs of infrastructure, vegetables and beverages, etc. Nobody is getting payed, we all volunteer. So, please help to make sure we can cover the costs, also because the resulting surplus will go to the Anarchist Defense Fund!

It would help alot to be able to cover upfront costs if you already send a donation now.
Can I get financial support?

If a workshop or performance incures material or special transport costs beyond your personal travel, you may request donations from participants to cover such costs. The donations that you collect in excess of these costs shall be given to our common fund in order to help cover infrastructure costs, food and drinks. The surplus of the collected money will go to the Anarchist Defense Fund!

We all work for free! Nobody is getting payed. Nobody involved in organizing this gathering has had any of their expenses payed or is getting any free food or beverages during the gathering. We all contribute our time and our costs and pay what we can. So do the artsists that perform theaters and concerts during the event. Please be fair and give what you can, in order to cover the substancial infrastructure, vegetables and beverages costs of such a gathering and support the good cause!

There is, however, money set aside for helping to pay travel costs for people that otherwise can not participate in the gathering. Write to international-village@anarchy2023.org to see if you are able to get financial support. Please give to https://contribute.anarchy2023.org to make more such help possible.
Can I access the event with a wheelchair?

Many places are accessible with a weehlchair, but not all. See the map at https://anarchy2023.org/info/map for details about each venue.
Are dogs allowed ?

Yes, you can bring your dog to the gathering as long as it does not cause trouble. You are responsible to take care that there are no complaints. Otherwise, you will have to leave with your dog. Also, bringing a dog into a concert would probably not be a good idea!
Is there a way to participate remotely?

You will be able to follow the event by listening to an on-site radio that will be streaming from the event. The radio will also setup a forum for chatting. Activities in some workshop rooms will be streamed which will always depend on the preference of the persons that organize that particular workshop. One of the rooms will be setup for hybrid workshops also enabling direct online participation.
Will the event be family friendly?

There will be a childcare during the afternoon. We will also propose some special film screenings followed by discussions for children and teenagers. There will also be a carousel and a playground next to one of the bars. We hope that more people will come forward with activity proposals for kids. So if you wish to organize something please don’t hesitate to add your proposal to openki: https://organize.anarchy2023.org/courses/propose

If you need to warm up anything you will be able to ask the kitchen anytime.
