Early info on the 2007 G8 Summit
by rtc
The 2007 G8 summit mobilisation is starting to take shape. The following is a very rough and certainly not set-in-stone overview of what the days of resistance will most likely look like:
Convergence Centre - Hamburg
From 26th May 2007 onwards there will be a convergence center open in Hamburg. The convergence center will be located in the autonomous social center "Rote Flora". The idea behind this convergence center is to offer a possibility for activists from other parts of Germany and especially for activists from abroad to gather already some days before the actual summit, to have a place to arrive in Germany and to prepare actions or get the latest information.
More information will be available soon at a bilingual website (german/english) under the following address: https://hamburg.dissentnetzwerk.org
This site is a wiki (an editable website) that is going to be used as a possibility for people (locals and internationals) to get in contact and to get involved in advance in the preparation-process.
