The external borders of the EU remain deadly for the thousands and thousands of migrants who want to or are forced to come to Europe. But the protests in Berlin, Vienna, Hamburg and elsewhere clearly show, that we are more and more facing the claim for a right of arrival. We are aready living in the „europe of the arriving“ (V. Tsianos). People stay here and they establish their own way of living and making business, with their own network — even though politicians and bureaucrats still rely on walling-off and try hard to ignore the reality.
After one and a half years of demonstrations, manifestations, protest actions and continious struggle, „the right to stay“ for the group „Lampedusa in Hamburg“ has still not been implemented. However, major developments have taken place in this city — this developments of solidarity, engagement and political activism can be observed also in other cities, in which Refugees have organized themselves. While the battle for a solution continues, and activists build informal structures and invent strategies to outsmart the regime of repressive residence, work permits and border politics, expertise has emerged almost everywhere but because so much needs to be the done, the time to analyse these assesments is often lacking.
The idea for the weekend camp on the 12.-14. September is to bring together various expertise on several issues, ranging from border crossing, arrival, selforganization, immigration to labour legislation — and we are going to interlace this with performances, songs, films and choreography.
