Freedom Not Fear 2014
This is the page to co-ordinate the European Freedom not Fear weekend in Brussels from 26-29 September 2014.
Join us: Freedom not Fear 2014 European policy making is affecting our every day lives and civil liberties more and more. The EU is increasingly imposing unnecessary and disproportionate governmental surveillance measures on us. We are not willing to take this any longer. Therefore we invite you to join us for about three days of
Issues"Freedom not fear 2014 - Defending fundamental rights in our networked world" We say NO to surveillance, data retention and PNR and demand the respect of our fundamental rights in the digital environment. Costs and applicationFreedom Not Fear Brussels (FNF) is for free and you don't have to register - just come, join and participate! FNF Brussels is non-profit, non-commercial and mainly driven/coordinated by individual volunteers who are working for free. But FNF Brussels will only become what you make of it. It lives from personal participation and engagement ... and would die, if there were none of that. When and where?When? From 26. – 29. September 2014 (Friday till Monday). We are starting on Friday afternoon. The official ending of the meeting shall be on Sunday evening, but there will be some more "action" on Monday, September 29, as some people want to organize some meetings with people from the EU Commission and Parliament. Where? We have booked some rooms in the "Mundo B" at Rue d'Edimbourg 26, where we had some wonderful days at Freedom not fear 2011, 2012 and 2013. It's the home of some non-governmental organisations and a very lovely place with lots of space for our meeting.

As we believe, networking beyond borders is becoming more and more important; therefore this "event" shall provide an opportunity to get citizen initiatives from different countries together. We will thus have four days of "Freedom not fear" in Brussels:
