GroenFront! Gathering 2012

GroenFront! Zomergathering

GroenFront! Gathering 2012

This year's GroenFront Gathering will be held from the 14th until the 16th of September in Hooghalen (The Netherlands). This gathering is the annual meeting point for radical eco-activists from Belgium and Holland.

The gathering is interesting for experienced activists, new activists, people who are interested in alternatives, basically for everyone who likes to contribute to saving nature and the ecosystems. We believe that by taking control in our own hands through direct action we can make a difference, more than making ourselves dependent upon policymakers or industry.

The gathering is not an all-inclusive resort, but a fun and interesting meeting where everybody has to help out every now and then. That's why we are looking for people who are willing to volunteer, many hands make light work!

So come join us for two days of learning, discussions, meeting people, conspiring, informing, strategizing, making an campfire and getting inspired.
