Workshop : asked for three workshop sessions

We regroup people from Italy, Germany, Norway, Sweden and France

Focus of your work: Our first objective is to get in touch with european organisations

implicated in the contests against commercialisation of education, so as to exchange our points of view and analysis.

Secondly, this should help organising actions at a European scale for the defence of Higher Education and Research as emancipating and democratic public services.

Plans for this year: This year, we will try to support the organisation of joint actions on

march 18th, 19th and 20th at the occasion of the spring summmit of the heads of state of the european union, whose principal task is to assess the Lisbon Strategy. At this occasion, mobilisations should be planned in European universities, laboratories and in the streets. A call for mobilisation is to be drafted.
