UFO Mink

UFO MINK meets every month in Basel. The main goal of the group is to support people who accompany others in crises and to reflect and work out collective ways of dealing with crises. We always take the time to exchange information about our condition in general and especially about our own support structures and situations.

UFO MINK emerged from the workshop series "Good for nothing" in Basel in autumn 2018. The series revolved around depressive experiences in resistant everyday life and tried to develop a collective approach to individual crises. Following this series of events, this group was founded to support support supporters and to promote collective approaches to dealing with crises. UFO MINK meets every month in Basel. The main purpose of the group is to support people who accompany others in crises and to reflect on and develop collective ways of dealing with crises. We always take the time to exchange information about our condition in general and our own support structures and situations in particular.
The first project of UFO MINK was the brochure "Für Unterstützende von Menschen in Krisen", which was published in December 2019 and can be found under the following link

Basel2030 Klimagerechtigkeitsinitiative

Basel

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.

CCJ Collective Climate Justice

Collective Climate Justice (vormals Climate Games Basel) ist eine Gruppe von engagierten Menschen verschiedener Hintergründe. Aus unserer Sicht sind Regierungen und profitorientierte Unternehmen nicht gewillt und nicht fähig die Klimakatastrophe und die massenhafte Umweltzerstörung zu stoppen. Es ist deshalb notwendig und wichtig selbst aktiv zu werden und zu einer Bewegung beizutragen, welche bestimmt für globale Klimagerechtigkeit kämpft.

Im Rahmen unserer letzten Aktionstage im Sommer 2019 wurden mit dem Hauptsitz der Credit Suisse am Zürcher Paradeplatz und dem Hauptsitz der UBS in der Aeschenvorstadt in Basel zwei wichtige Standorte des Schweizer Finanzplatzes blockiert. Hunderte Menschen blockierten mit ihren Körpern die Zugänge zu den Hauptsitzen der beiden Grossbanken und zeigen, was sie wollen: den Investoren der Klimakatastrophe, namentlich Credit Suisse und UBS, den Geldhahn zudrehen! Credit Suisse und UBS sind die Hauptverantwortlichen des Schweizer Finanzplatzes für die weltweite Klimakatastrophe. Zwar wird hier kein Öl gefördert und keine Kohle verbrannt, aber von hier aus werden derartige Projekte finanziert und dadurch erst möglich gemacht.

Über neue Menschen die mit uns die Welt verändern wollen, freuen wir uns immer!

BETREFF: VERSCHWINDEN

Culture for everyone. A literary Telegram channel for reading and writing.

On this channel we create texts for a time, when certainties are not so certain anymore. Texts for a time, when occurrences are commented in the second they occur and become almost transparent in the process. Texts for a time that slips away from us. Texts like time fragments, that flicker up, are read and forgotten. Secret texts.

Texts about disappearance and the art of disappearing. About disappearance, which is an art, and art which disappears, when we do not see it. Texts for reflection.
What is going to disappear? What remains?

You have to say something about disappearance and want to contribute to this channel? Send a short poem or a short prose text to: kunstdesverschwindens@gmail.com
Please indicate whether your text is supposed to be posted anonymously or under your name.

This is a German channel. Texts in other languages can be posted with a German translation. We are happy to proofread the translations and we can help translating English or Spanish texts.

Texts that correspond to the concept of this channel will be posted.
All rights remain with the authors.

End Fossil: Occupy Basel

Basel

Our schools! Our universities!
End Fossil Basel is getting things moving in our schools and at the University of Basel! Together we make the education system - our schools and the University of Basel fit for the future. Come to an event or contact us - Join us!

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!

March against Bayer & Syngenta

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.
