Anarcha Feminist Fest in Zagreb 2007

Location

Zagreb
Croatia

Anfema is something like a group of afinities, a group of people that share oppinions and wishes and work together on different actions and projects. In this case it's about anarchism and anarcha-feminism. The group is transparent, fluid, open for everybody that's interested in it. The structure doesn't exist, nor does hierarchy while all the decisions are brought by consensus.

The F-Word (E-Zine)

Location

London
United Kingdom
51° 30' 0.5472" N, 0° 7' 34.4496" W

This webzine exists to help encourage a new sense of community among UK feminists, and to show the doubters that feminism still exists here, today, now - and is as relevant to the lives of the younger generation as it was to those in the 60s and 70s. The webzine was founded by, and is mainly written by younger feminists, those of us born during or after the feminism of the 60s and 70s. Although we encourage contributions from feminists of all ages, we are particularly keen to encourage and showcase the new voices of younger feminists, our peers. To this end, contributions from new writers of all ages, and young women and girls are particularly welcomed and encouraged.

Callout for LoveKills Festival #4 (Camp in Romania)

Teaser Image: 

LoveKills Collective intends to bring about the fourth edition of LoveKills Festival in the summer of 2009. We will organize again the anarcha-feminist gathering, but this time we would like to organize it as a one week camp. The camp will take place in the mountains (west of Romania, Socolari village) between 27 july - 02 august 2009. Our experience with the previous editions and the impact they had, above all in the local context, conferred us not only with the motivation but also with the strength to keep on organizing such an event.
