Climate Justice Basel
Call for climate justice in Basel and worldwide!
The electorate approved the Basel2030 climate justice initiative with 56.7%. In the run-off question, the counter-proposal was accepted with a majority of 61.9%. With this result, climate justice, the polluter pays principle and "1.5°C" are written into the constitution as a guideline for state action! The desire of the people of Basel for consistent climate targets is great. Now it is about the implementation.
Measures for climate justice
We demand that emissions be reduced particularly quickly over the next 5 years. The population should be involved in the process and those who are particularly affected should receive additional support. It is important to move forward in many different areas, e.g. to immediately stop climate-damaging projects such as the Rhine tunnel, to promote innovative start-ups or to introduce further training for teachers to support them in communicating the climate crisis in the classroom.
We demand all this and much more. In the "Necessary Measures for Climate Justice and Net Zero by 2037" we have thought about what the implementation of the initiative requires. We have handed over the list of measures to the government and look forward to continuing to implement the initiative in the future. There is a lot to do.

A platform open to everyone: Those directly affected by capitalist urban revaluation, displacement.
*meeting as needed - contact the network of concerned persons via e-mail.
Basel is becoming more and more exclusive, affordable living space is disappearing, there is no room for non-commercial living together.
But we do not let ourselves be repressed and organize ourselves in "Häusertreff". As those affected, we offer mutual support and plan strategies to resist isolation and displacement.
Support us, come by, interfere, it concerns us all!

The timeless living-room is a queerfeminist space at SP!T, open for all people who want to get together and have a conversation about our struggles and dreams, without the pressure of meetings and demonstrations. We want to chill together, get to know each other, chat, read or plan events.
Queerfeminism is meant for everyone and if it's new for you or you haven't been in touch with movements, you're all the more welcome. We value error-friendliness, mutual respect and to treat each other free from discrimination. We want to shape this space together, so feel free to tell us about your ideas, your suggestions and wishes for your own events.
The living-room is open regularly each week alternating Thursday evening and Saturday afternoon, sometimes with more sometimes less program.
Open for all genders. Not barrier-free: three steps. For more information see @Zeitloseswohnzimmer.

The KASKO sees itself as a place of mediation and experimental, exploratory and processual art-making with an emphasis on the autonomy of the projects.
Als komplementärer Kunstort spielt das KASKO im Kontext der Basler Kunstinstitutionen eine eigenständige Rolle. Es funktioniert als flexible Struktur, in der Künstler*innen und Theoretiker*innen gemeinsam an der Schnittstelle von Kunst und Vermittlung arbeiten und den Dialog zwischen Kunstschaffenden und Kunstinteressierten anregen. Ein zentrales Anliegen ist es, Künstler*innen und Kunstvermittler*innen Freiräume zu gewähren und sie dadurch zu fördern. Weiter sucht und pflegt das KASKO die Vernetzung und Kooperation mit städtischen und regionalen Initiativen und Institutionen und mit anderen unabhängigen Kunsträumen im In- uns Ausland. Der Ort selbst steht Künstler*innen und Kunstvermittler*innen als Freiraum und Experimentierfeld zur Verfügung. Zugleich steht das KASKO auch für ein solides und nachhaltiges künstlerisches Programm mit grossem Fokus auf Performance und anderen performativen Ausdrucksformen.

March against Bayer & Syngenta reveals the destructive practices of the huge agrochemical corporations and calls for sustainable, future-oriented and fair agriculture for everyone.
Over 70 percent of the global seed and pesticide market is currently controlled by four major corporations. These corporations stand for an agricultural system that destroys biodiversity, erodes soils, poisons groundwater and devours vast amounts of fossil energy.
In Switzerland and Basel we have to take responsibility! Since 2015 we have been organizing regular demonstrations, a variety of activities and events to raise public awareness of the dark sides of Syngenta, Bayer, BASF + Co. and to point out alternatives.
We are a nomadic space for contemporary feminism. Our vision is to foster debate culture and make queer feminist literature amenable.
Different formats and media for reading and listening enable an experimental and performative access to literature with a focus on feminism, pop culture and critical theory.
Gira por la Vida – Tour for life: The Zapatismo is coming to Europe!
Group to support and organise the Zapatistas' trip to Europe and their visit to Basel.
In summer 2021, a caravan of about 160 Zapatistas will come to Europe, including Switzerland. For that, we are organising ourselves!
We are people from different collectives, organisations, spaces, squats, with different perspectives, backgrounds and languages.
Based on our own experiences as people being displaced in Basel, we deal with the "right to the city" both in terms of content and actively on the street. The "right to the city" group meets regularly, discusses, publishes and plans actions. We are open for interested people =)

Getting wind of "urban development"? It's the wrecking ball.
The history of the displacement in Basel is long and it continues. The wrecking ball is cutting deep aisles into our city, through which the cold wind of displacement is blowing.
Who wants that?
Try to explain to a child why it is fair that an investor who has never walked through a house, never lived there and never worked there can now decide that those who have invested a lot of time, attention and energy in this place must be removed:
Because the world is unjust?
Because it is capitalist?
Because we subordinate ourselves to the market?
No.
Our city is not for sale.
People in this City have the right to help shape the urban space, regardless of the origin or size of their wallet. We fight, together and for all.

Das Holzrock Open Air ist ein linksautonomes Musik- und Kulturfestival. Wir organisieren alles selbst. Am Holzrock geht es darum, Menschen eine Stimme zu geben, Platz zu machen, Raum zu gestalten und eine wundervoll zauberhafte Zeit entstehen zu lassen. Unsere Haltung ist antirassistisch und antifaschistisch – und vieles mehr!
Das Holzrock Open Air ist ein linksautonomes Musik- und Kulturfestival. Das Festival wird von unterschiedlichen Menschen ehrenamtlich nach dem DIY (do-it-yourself) Prinzip organisiert. In monatlich stattfindenden Plenen kann sich jede*r einbringen, dabei streben wir in Grundsatzentscheidungen einen Konsens an. Die Festivalorga steht das ganze Jahr über für interessierte Mitwirkende und neue Ideen offen.
Das Holzrock soll ein diskriminierungsfreier Ort der Vielfalt sein, in dem Grenzen anderer respektiert werden und sich jede*r unabhängig von Herkunft und Genderidentität frei entfalten kann. Wir wollen einen nachhaltigen Raum für respektvolles und bewusstes Verhalten gegenüber Mensch, Tier und Natur schaffen. Bei uns herrscht kein Konsumzwang. Es geht nicht um Profit, sondern darum, dass möglichst viele Menschen ein schönes Festival zusammen gestalten und erleben können. Das Holzrock entsteht miteinander – füreinander, weil es Spaß macht die Welt selbst zu gestalten, deshalb verstehen wir uns nicht als Dienstleistende. Unser Ziel ist es Subkultur zu fördern und die regionale Kulturszene zu unterstützen sowie einen Raum für politische Ideen und Diskussionen zu schaffen.
Entsanden ist das Holzrock aus der Punk Bewegung Ende der 80er Jahre und die Energie schwingt immernoch im schnellen Tackt. Heute ist das Musikprogramm aber diverser und experimenteller als je zuvor - vom feministischen Hiphop bis zum kratzigen 80ies Wave oder stampfigen Techno des Nachts gibts für alle Ohren etwas!
