Introduction

Freedom Not Fear

Brussels – 14, 15, 16 and 17 September 2012

This is the second year in a row that the activist movement « Freedom not Fear » is organising a weekend in Brussels with talks, protests, workshops and networking.

What is Freedom Not Fear ?

Freedom not fear is an activist movement and a coalition of NGOs, collectives and citizens which meets in many different places once per year in September in order to defend a free and open society against the ever increasing number of restrictions of our fundamental rights. This movement organises an international activist weekend for protests, discussions and reflection with the aim to put an end to the culture of fear.

European legislation influences our daily lives more and more and some of them have a direct impact on the way we communicate, access information or take part in civic life. In 2011, several hundred people from Belgium, the Netherlands, France, Germany, Austria and the UK participated in the first Brussels edition. Around fifty participated in the following day of meetings with European policy makers in the European Parliament and the Commission.

The main goal of this weekend of information, activities and reflection, to which all citizens are invited, is to create a dynamic and to support knowledge sharing on topics such as the defense of fundamental rights in the digital era or the increase of surveillance measures, for example retention or CCTV surveillance (see page 3 for a detailed desciption of our topics). The incredible pan-European mobilisation against ACTA (Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement) has shown that civil society can have a decisive impact on draft legislations that threaten civil liberties.

Programme

14 - 17 September 2012

  • 14/09: Arrivals
  • 15/09 -16/09: Protest, CCTV spotting/mapping, talks and workshops
Location: Mundo B ([www.mundo-b.org www.mundo-b.org])

There are many ways to get involved:

  • Support the event and add your organisation to the list of official « supporters » (see here the list of supporters from last year, amongst them the Ligue des Droits de l'Homme Belgique, l'Association Européenne pour la Défense des Droits de l'Homme or NOCCTV)
  • Spread the information (on your website, social networks, blogs, newsletter, etc.).
  • Organise a workshop or a talk on an issue linked to our topics, on Saturday 15/09 or Sunday 16/09.
  • Take part in the activities or listen to the talks.

International meeting of digital civil rights movement

Second "Freedom not Fear" weekend in September in Brussels

Following on from last year's inaugural event, privacy activists from across Europe will once again meet for the Brussels Freedom not Fear event from 14th-17th September 2012. Freedom not Fear aims to bring campaign groups, NGOs and commited activists together under one message - to halt the surveillance "arms race" and allow the people of Europe to live in freedom, not fear. The four-day event will consist of a mixture of workshops, discussions and publicity stunts.

Participants are expected from several European Union countries, including UK, Poland, Spain, Austria, Netherlands, Germany and of course Belgium. The range of subjects already scheduled for discussion include concerns about the use of video surveillance, a European citizens' initiative against data retention, as well as a discussion of fundamental questions about how such a loose collective of civil movements could have any political influence.

The event will take place at the "Mundo B" conference centre in the heart of Brussels, and is open to anyone. Participation is free and no registration is needed. More information can be found at http://www.freedom-not-fear.eu, whilst http://www.freedomnotfear.org has information on other international actions. For more multilingual press information a wiki page has been created.
