We offer an established platform for contemporary photography, regularly presenting works by well-known photographers and young talents to a wide audience in our exhibition space. The events are planned and organized by photographers or interested parties who are passionate about photography. We work on a voluntary basis and are organized as a non-profit association with 200 members, 30 of whom are active. For 10 years, we have been organizing a photographically diverse, exciting and challenging programme of exhibitions and events for professionals, but also for people interested in photography who realize their own projects within the framework of BelleVue.

Support our diverse program and become a member!

Opening hours: Samstag und Sonntag, 11 bis 17 Uhr

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.

END FOSSIL: OCCUPY schools and universities!
Between September and December 2022, we occupied more than 50 schools and universities around the world to #EndFossil.

It is important that we organize ourselves as youth at work, at university, but also at our schools! For a social ecology and the end of the fossil industry, as well as its influence on society!

Our 3 principles:
1. youth led - The occupations are organized by young people. All are welcome to join!

2. climate justice - The political framework behind the occupations is that of climate justice. We want an end to the fossil fuel industry in order to achieve climate neutrality and global social justice. We want to achieve our goal through a global and socially just process.

3. occupy until we win - Our intention is to occupy (high-)schools in a wide variety of locations, disrupting public life until our demands are achieved.

We take our inspiration from countless historical examples, such as the 2006 Penguin Revolution in Chile, the 2016 Primavera Secundarista in Brazil, the global mobilization in and after 1986, and many others that have shown us that young people have the power to change society from the ground up. Our goal is nothing less: we start as students, but we want the whole society to take action for climate justice.

We are unstoppable - Another world is possible! We will not give up until the fossil era is over!

… is a calendar to provide an overview of the subversive everyday life in Basel, as well as the various self-organized events and self-administered initiatives.

… should empower the different anti-capitalist, DIY, ecological, emancipatory, queer*feminist, anti-racist, revolutionary, spontaneous, planned, … events.

… should make these events more accessible.

… is a tool to connect the various initiatives, whether on the digital platform or out there in the real world, for example with the monthly print version or mutual support.

… should continue the idea of the former, analogue B-Flyer (thanks for that<3).

Our short description follows ;)

Der Verein Stadt für Alle setzt sich für eine sozialverträgliche, bezahlbare und ökologische Stadt ein, die frei von Renditezwängen und Ausgrenzung belebt wird. Wir dokumentieren städtische Prozesse, insbesondere auf dem Wohnungs-, Immobilien- und Bodenmarkt Basels. Wir intervenieren in die öffentlichen Diskussionen um Stadtentwicklung und Wohnpolitik. Und wir unterstützen Hausgruppen, Quartiervereine oder Mieter:innen.

Die erste Critical Mass hat sich in San Fransisco im Jahr 1992 gebildet. Die Idee hat sich schnell auf der ganzen Welt verbreitet. Heute gibt es in über 300 Städten weltweit eine monatliche Critical Mass.

Die Critical Mass hat keinen Organisator. Wenn am vereinbarten Treffpunkt die kritische Masse erreicht ist, fährt die Masse los. Es ist keine Route vorbestimmt. Wer zuvorderst fährt, bestimmt die Richtung.

Wer sich mit seinem Fahrrad in den Verkehr begibt, setzt sich täglich grossen Gefahren aus und wird als minderwärtiger Verkehrsteilnehmer marginalisiert. Finden sich jedoch hunderte von Velofahrer*innen, um gemeinsam eine Rundfahrt zu machen, so können sie dem motorisierten Verkehr auf Augenhöhe begegnen.

Die Critical Mass blockiert die Strasse nicht absichtlich. Durch die hohe Anzahl Teilnehmer*innen entsteht kurzfristig ein Stau. Im Gegensatz zum motorisierten Verkehr, der tagtäglich unsere Strassen versperrt, handelt es sich hierbei um einen Stau ohne jegliche Umweltverschmutzung. Zudem erlaubt dieser Stau eine soziale Interaktion zwischen den Verkehrsteilnehmer*innen, da sie sich nicht durch eine Karosserie isoliert sind.

Wo die Critical Mass auftaucht, erfahren die Autofahrenden, was den Velofahrenden täglich widerfährt: Das Auto wird zum machtlosen Gefährt, das sich den anderen Verkehrsteilnehmer*innen (hier Velos) unterordnen muss.

Während der Critical Mass wird der öffentliche Raum vorübergehend zurückerobert und wird zum Ort des sozialen Austauschs. Dadurch wird der Gesellschaft gezeigt, dass es sinnvollere Verkehrsmöglichkeiten gibt als den motorisierten Individualverkehr.
Die Critical Mass ist eine friedliche Veranstaltung.
