That was the common starting point from where the moderator opened the session and the speakers presented their alternative political and civic projects aimed at reinventing Europe and reviving democracy. As Ivana Nenadović said, if there is nobody else doing it for you, you have to step out of your comfort zone and do it yourself. Let’s not just change leaders and parties, let’s change the system altogether – by returning democracy to its sovereign: the citizens.

  • Hack (Y)Our Borders 1. What Is the Exact Proposition/Hypothesis of Your
    Hack (y)our Borders 1. What is the exact proposition/hypothesis of your proposal in the involvement of people & communities in shaping and (re)defining public space? As globalisation breaks down geographic, cultural & economic borders, it impacts our lives, creating new opportunities, but also new insecurities. Not knowing how to navigate a world constantly redefined, many people become tempted to re-create cultural & psychological borders to protect themselves from what they can’t control nor understand. Despite the opportunities globalisation creates, only some have the capabilities to re-shape borders and redraw the social & cultural maps on how we should live. Even we, as citizens, can take our social codes for granted & find it difficult to perceive how they exclude others from public spaces. These spaces are regulated by invisible codes that convey whom a particular space is for and what behaviour is allowed. But there are other codes we want to learn from that people use to break down these borders between practices & cultures. That’s why we want to understand: ● What invisible borders people in Amsterdam, Barcelona, Berlin, London, Vilnius, Warsaw neighbourhoods experience and perceive in public spaces? ● How people are breaking down these invisible borders in these cities and disciplines? ● How people can co-design devices & activities using physical and open source methods to break down these borders? 1. Map our collective wisdom To carry out this work, we will map with our partners our collective experience of engaging communities in public space. 2. Train social designers to uncover & make sense of invisible borders Using this, we will train up people in Amsterdam, Berlin, London & Warsaw to become to uncover the “invisible borders” people face in their neighbourhoods and the ways people are breaking down borders – “border hacks”.

  • Interim Evaluation of the Transeuropa Caravans Project
    INTERIM EVALUATION OF THE TRANSEUROPA CARAVANS PROJECT Transeuropa Caravans 2019 is a high- profile project run by European Alternatives and funded by the European Commission (DG Justice and Consumers). The core of the project consists of a group of 20 young activists travelling through fifteen European countries on five different routes: -the Central Eastern route (Germany, Austria, Hungary) -the Western route (France, Spain, Portugal) -the Visegrad route (Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia) -the Scandinavian and Baltic route (Sweden, Finland, Estonia) -the Mediterranean route (Croatia, Slovenia and Italy) The first four routes were completed starting at the beginning of May in the run-up to the European elections of 23-26 May, whilst the fifth will take place after the summer. A final version of this report will be presented at the Transeuropa Festival in Palermo from 7-10 November 2019. In this interim report we assess the project and the best practices so far selected in the light of the following targets: -engage with citizens about their rights to freedom of movement and the importance of voting in the European elections; -learn from and highlight local initiatives and struggles defending European rights and values which are effectively combating racism or extreme nationalism and striving for a more democratic open Europe; -create a catalogue of best practices- stories of activists and activities of organisations -which can inspire others across Europe; -in support of these aims, assess needs for follow-up action and European networking in areas such as communicating Europe, migration and participatory democracy. The project has been a great success so far in addressing these aims.

  • Letter from Lublin
    Letter from Lublin Recently Lublin, Poland, hosted an international political/artistic Festival Transeuropa on the rights of women, minorities and refugees, on hospitality and on artistic freedom. It was organized by TCDS associates and D&D alumni Tomasz Kitlinski, Pawel Leszkowicz, Sylwia Nadgrodkiewicz and other local activists. May 26, 2011 Transeuropa Lublin: Festival for Lublin and Europe without Prejudices "I left Rome on a sunny spring day and arrived in a freezing Poland. However, taking part in Transeuropa Lublin could not have made me feel warmer. The Festival managed to attract a large group of diverse citizens interested in hearing about or visually experiencing themes and issues that are still quite marginal in Polish public discourse. From gay rights to abortion, from recycling and composting to exploring the Jewish heritage of the city, Transeuropa Festival did not shy away from topics that can be thorny everywhere in Europe and particularly so at the Eastern border of the EU. Not being able to understand Polish, I did appreciate mostly the visual arts elements of the festival, in particular the exhibition Love Is Love on gay visibility in Europe, featuring campaigns on LGBT issues from around Europe, contrasted with shocking images of violence during the Gay Pride parades of Zagreb and Belgrade." Alessandro Valera, Rome Held in Lublin 5-15 May 2011, Transeuropa Festival celebrated hospitality and the rights of women, minorities and refugees. Through exhibitions, performances, debates and workshops, it fostered the acceptance of LGBTQ community, feminism and transnational cultures. The Festival tried to remember and revive the murdered interculturality of the city.
