in Berlin
in Berlin
December 3—4, 2022
The Antiwar Initiatives Congress is a gathering of anti-war and humanitarian initiatives, whose participants are ready to form a pan-European community — a platform.
A community will allow to unite efforts to jointly resist war and dictatorship, as well as to build a dialogue between the civil society of Russians and the political institutions of the Eastern Partnership and the European Union.
The purpose of the congress
is to organize the cooperation of initiatives, to increase their effectiveness and visibility and to advocate together for the return of Russia to the path of democratic development and good neighborly relations based on the principles of international law.
who participate in congress
Representatives of antiwar civil initiatives, non-profit organizations, political movements and foundations, as well as media, cultural, educational and economic activists, whose efforts are also aimed at a speedy end to the Russian invasion of Ukraine and overcoming the consequences of the war and the Kremlin regime will be invited to the Congress.
The Congress will be open for constructive interaction and filled with working and discussion formats. The program will be based on practical requests for initiatives and will be curated by the representatives of the communities themselves.
