We need people willing to use their creative skills, and learn new ones to help us prepare the Ecotopia campsite.

It looks like it is going to be a hot summer of transnational gatherings and transnational action. So whether you jump on your bike, the bus or train crossing borders to put up your tent or roll out your sleeping bag elsewhere (those priviliged to cross borders, that is), or whether you stay in your neighborhood and bring global matters to the forefront in your locality, there sure is no need to get bored the coming months. See on Global Matters.

As May approaches, the wishes and winds of change coming from immigrants initiatives become more evident.

EYFA has been using this alternative 'currency' model called Ecorates in different projects for several years now. What a small amount is for a person coming from one country can be too much for the person coming from another country.

BUT we need your help with this.

On the occasion of the Chernobyl disaster anniversary, the French pressure group « Sortir du nucléaire » highly encourage you to take part in the international action day.

Reactor No 4 at Chernobyl exploded on April 26th 1986, 22 years ago. That day, the biggest technological and industrial disaster the world has ever known began.
