Call for Workshops – Klimacampchen 2023

We want to seize the current developments of the energy crisis and the upcoming European Gas Conference as an opportunity to organize a workshop weekend. This will take place from March 3-5, 2023 at the Cultural Center 4lthangrund (Alte WU – Mensa, Augasse 2-6).
The weekend will include different formats to collectively exchange, network and question the prevailing unsocial and climate-damaging structures. Therefore we are looking for your ideas for workshops, lectures and the like. Possible topics are:

• Climate justice
  Global climate justice, extractivism, North-South-Divide
• Social justice in the energy crisis
  Energy justice, actors and profiting companies, wealth redistribution, alternative energy distribution.
• Identifying blind spots
  Racism in the climate movement, queer feminist perspectives, post-colonial structures, privilege in labor.
• Challenging false solutions
  Greenwashing, Green New Deal, government solution concepts, tribal debates.
• Alternative visions and theories
  Degrowth, Commonism, Sociocracy,
• Emotional sustainability
  From climate anxiety to climate rage, roundtables.
• DIY and activism
  Community farming, community groups, dumpsters, bike repair, guerrilla gardening
• Well-being and movement
  Yoga, meditation, planning games

These are just a few suggestions for workshops. We are open to other formats, topics and ideas. We reject conspiracy theories and discriminating content. Workshop slots are 2 or 3 hours long and the rooms provide space for 15-30 people.

We especially want to encourage people who are exposed to social discrimination (e.g. FLINTA* persons¹, BIPoC², migrants, and persons with disabilities) to submit a workshop.

English and German are the camp languages, but we also welcome submissions in other languages. Please discuss this with us well in advance so that we can organize a translation if necessary.

Please submit your workshop until January 31st 2023 here.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us: programm [at] klimacamp.at
