Work-and-lobby-weekend on PNR

The idea behind this is to get people from europe together to talk, (net)work and lobby against the planned Passenger-Name-Record-Directive (PNR-DR). We will also work on the PNR agreements between the EU and the US / Australia.

Structure

The idea behind this model of "work-and-lobby-weekend" ist as following:

time	what's going on?
friday evening - saturday morning	arrival, get together
saturday 10:00	arrival and start
saturday morning	Ralf, Wouter and Alex will present on the state of play
saturday	substantive work on the EU-PNR directive and the agreements
sunday 11:00	drafting FAQ, develop campaign compiling "common paper", preparing for monday
monday 9:30	get access badges at European Parliament, Rue Wiertz 60 entrance
monday 10:00-17:00	meetings in the European Parliament, room WIB 05M003
monday evening	saying good-bye

Everybody should feel free to use the time on monday or further on for his own lobbying-campaign. Once you're inside of Altiero Spinelli it is very easy to get in contact with MEP's or their right hands.

Etherpad

There is an etherpad for everything around this weekend: https://etherpad.foebud.org/pnr-weekend

When?

2011, May 27 to 30 (friday til monday)

Where?

Brussels, Belgium.

For the weekend we will spend the day-time at the small conference room at mundo, Rue d'Edimbourg 26, 1050 Bruxelles, Tel. +32-2-894 4611

Here is a map of that location - it is quite near to the metro-station porte de namur, even very near to the European Parliament.

On Monday we'll have a conference room in the Willy Brandt building of the European Parliament (room 05M003).

Meeting point for those without EP entry passes is at 9:30 in front of the Altiero Spinelli (ASP) building, main entrance, Rue Wiertz 60, 1047 Brussels (where the bridge goes between two buildings over the street, on the back side if you're coming from Place Luxembourg).

Start-/Meeting-Point

Wether friday evening in the lobby of the 2go4-hostel, let's say 6pm.

or saturday morning in mundo at 10:00 sharp.

Alex - AT, from NoPNR, info (edd) nopnr (dot) org

Accomodation

We were looking for different solutions but didn't catch any real good solution. We would like to recommend to get to the 2go4-hostel because the prices are okay there, there is free wifi and a public kitchen and it's no problem to stay there even if you're older than 40 summers (even though that those guys didn't like to help us in reserving a 8-bed-room for ourselves ...).

If you like to stay anywhere else - no problem. There is a little overview of some cheap hostels on the german wiki page "brussels travel guide for privacy-activists".

Questions?

Don't hesitate to ask Michael, Marius or Ralf.

What do we need on-site?

very important: printer (alex)
printer-paper (alex)
WIFI-router (michael)
beamer incl. long vga-cable (michael)
belgium umts-stick (ryo via michael)
some power extension cables (michael, marius, ...)
some pencils, glue, scissors (michael)
folders at a number of twelve - including following documents (michael):
