The IGA is the trade union for precarious workers, those who work temporarily, on an interim basis, on call and in several part-time jobs at the same time. The job seekers, those who have been excluded, those with reduced pensions, those who are on the subsistence level, the self-employed, bogus self-employed, undocumented workers - and of course all those who still have a permanent job.

The magazine invites you to browse through rebellious stories, exchange ideas and discuss with each other
The space is a self-organised meeting place for anyone interested in anti-authoritarian ideas. And for anyone looking for access to knowledge and history that is critical of the existing social order.
We see the writing, distribution and reading of texts – be they theoretical essays, stories or experience reports – as an important part of resistance practice. Our selection of books and brochures includes historical and current content, but is by no means complete or conclusive. In this sense, we want to broaden our perspectives, strengthen analyses and make them accessible through texts and discussions.
In addition to the library service, brochures, zines and flyers are available to borrow and take with you. Or you can drop by for a chat with us. From time to time we organise information and discussion events, as well as readings and film evenings. We are always open to suggestions. You can also find material from us to write letters to prisoners. Our address can also be used for this purpose, and letters received can be collected during opening hours.
We see ourselves as part of the fight against gentrification and displacement in the neighbourhood. Together with the collectively run neighbourhood pub Capri Bar, which is right next door, we form a place beyond the obligation to consume and the logic of profit. We want to create physical moments of community to counter the increasing shift of social life into the isolation of digital space. Let’s fill the magazine with life together!
Opening hours: Montag 16-21h & Freitag 16-20h

We are a revolutionary climate collective in Basel consisting of climate activists and revolutionary organizations. Come to our open meetings and join the struggle against the capitalist system and for a social and ecological world. We have no time to lose: Let's draw the practical consequences from our knowledge and conviction!
Anti-capitalist, queer-feminist and anti-racist - for a revolutionary perspective!
We as “Jetzt kämpfen” - the revolutionary climate collective from Basel, are a revolutionary, extra-parliamentary and anti-capitalist climate group, consisting of individuals and people from political associations. The urgency of the climate crisis and the impossibility of solving it under capitalism drives us to fight for a revolutionary perspective.
You can read our political positions on our website: https://jetztkaempfen.wordpress.com/selbstverstandnis/
The internet is not only about the sharing ideas and information. It's about decentralizing power. That's why nearly every government and corporation on the planet is against net neutrality. - And why we must fight for it!
Under the name of wolke7 we're providing a local, encrypted and independent cloud service for storing and sharing data with other people.
A tiny team of volunteers maintains ther servers, the website and everything besides that. We are interessed in managing data in a propper way and being a part of a complex challange for our society.
The project is based on open source software of nextcloud and runs on our own servers.
Platform for mutual support of self-organized spaces and collectives in Basel
The self-organized collectives of Basel, Restaurant Hirscheneck, Eiscafé Acero, Carambolage, Capri-Bar, queerfeminist library Sp!t, SUR3*TU, UG-Kollektiv, Infoladen Magazin, Druckkollektiv Phoenix, Getränkekollektiv, Elsi und Brockenbude Glubos call for financial support to keep our self-created structures alive!
Collective action
Over many years the self-organized groups and venues in this city have built independent structures which are not oriented towards profit increase or prestige of the people who co-organize them, and they enable many to have an income and projects on an equal footing. Organizing as a collective allows us to challenge internal hierarchies again and again and to fill the opening spaces and possibilities with critical content. Helping neighbors and other support work is lived solidarity.
Stay collective
Many of you used and still use these different spaces, as guests or customers, as visitors or friends, to organize politically. Now it is about helping the collectives to get over a difficult time and to prevent these structures from breaking away. In order to support each other as spaces, we hereby start a common fund for collective preservation. Wherever there is an emergency, the collected donations will be used directly and according to the most urgent need and necessity to pay the bills. Together we can keep these places alive for all who use and run them!

Open meeting for women and genderqueer people
At Lilith, women and genderqueer people from very different parts of the world meet. We talk to each other about everyday and political issues that concern us. What we all have in common is that we know from our own experience what it means to be a woman or genderqueer person in a world characterized by social inequality and violence. We also see ourselves as part of a larger feminist movement, exchange ideas about feminist struggles in different countries and show solidarity with these struggles.
Lotta ist eine revolutionäre, basisdemokratische Organisation aus Basel. Wir kämpfen für eine gerechte, herrschaftsfreie Gesellschaft, an der alle gleichermassen teilhaben können und in der die zentralen Entscheidungen gemeinsam von unten getroffen und umgesetzt werden. Gesellschaftliche Bereiche wie die Produktion, der Wohnraum und die Infrastruktur sollen gemeinschaftlich verwaltet und organisiert sein.
Die heute herrschenden Verhältnisse sind erdrückend. Wenige Konzerne besitzen unglaubliche Mengen an Ressourcen und Macht. Nach wie vor prägen sexistische Strukturen unsere Leben. Menschen werden aufgrund ihrer Herkunft, ihrer Religion oder ihres Aussehens diskriminiert und ausgegrenzt. Arbeitsbedingungen verschlechtern sich und die sozialen Verhältnisse verschärfen sich für die Mehrheit der Bevölkerung. Während die Umwelt zerstört wird, der Rechtsextremismus erstarkt und sich Millionen Menschen auf der Flucht befinden, glauben viele Menschen nicht, dass eine grundlegende Veränderung der Verhältnisse möglich ist.
Doch Widerstände und hoffnungsvolle Kämpfe gibt es überall. Von der neuen weltweiten feministischen Bewegung, zu migrantischen Kämpfen über die gilets jaunes in Frankreich. Von dem revolutionären Gesellschaftsprojekt in Rojava bis hin zur neuen, jungen Klimabewegung.
Wir wollen nicht bloss zusehen. Wir organisieren uns. Um der Vereinzelung und Ohnmacht entgegenzuwirken, möchten wir damit beginnen, den Aufbau von selbstorganisierten, ausserparlamentarischen und solidarischen Strukturen zu stärken. Lokal im Quartier verankert und doch verbunden mit Bewegungen an anderen Orten auf der Welt. Beteiligt am Aufbau von kontinuierlichen Strukturen, welche uns in den Problemen des Alltags Stärke geben – und gleichzeitig fähig mit Aktionen und Demos spontan in das Zeitgeschehen einzugreifen und revolutionäre Positionen in die Gesellschaft zu tragen. Gemeinsam möchten wir Erfahrungen sammeln und einen Schritt vor den anderen setzen.
Überall auf der Welt gibt es Menschen, die für ein anderes Leben einstehen und kämpfen. Durch unser Handeln haben wir die Macht, unsere eigene Zukunft zu gestalten. Erkämpfen wir uns unser Leben zurück!
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.
critical intervention against migration regimes
Fiasko against fiasko
In Switzerland, Europe and many places throughout the world, migrants are judged “unwelcome”. Arriving people are rejected, isolated, administered and locked away. Somebody who wants to fight against this, who is searching for reliable information, is confronted with an impenetrable jungle of laws, orders and official despotism. Medias publish mostly superficial articles, repor- ted always from the same presumptuous perspective. Structures and conditions should not be questioned – we place a totally different demand on this newspaper!
face it: more than informing and commenting
In this newspaper there will be place for critical and self-determined texts written by people who no longer want to go along with a migration regime that categorizes, oppresses and exploits. By people who have had enough of a society who grants privileges and excludes, who want to rise their voice – silently and cautious, aloud and angry. By people who want to choose freely with whom they want to live with and in which manner and where their life should happen. People who demand this for everybody – open and in solidarity.
deal with it: think along, exchange and intervene
The point of this newspaper is to enforce awareness and to come into action against any illegalisation, discrimination and exclusion. Contribute with your own texts to criticize fundamentally all the social, economic and political structures that back up the migration regime. Different kinds of contributions are welcome – apart from reports and articles there will be place for creati- ve inputs such as pictures, drawings, comics and poems. All the contributions come out in the original language and with an English translation.
go further: let’s use (the) fiasko
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

P.S.
We use underlines to include all people, regardless of gender identity, in the language. In addition, we use the apostrophe to indicate that the category woman or man is socially constructed. Since a reader reads the apostrophe as a short pause, we prefer this instead of the star.
