>Dear friends,

>We inform you that during the first week of May 2006 the European Social
>Forum will take place in Athens. At the same time the open assembly for the
>creation of the "Autonomous Spaces" / Open Public Ephemeral Zone will use a
>university space in the centre of Athens and will produce an ephemeral
>autonomous zone that will try to bring together all the grassroots
>anticapitalist, autonomous and antiauthoritarian collectives, groups and
>movements. We will try all of us to co-create an open public space that will
>give the opportunity to all the libertarian radical utopians, the
>anarchists, the antiauthoritarians, the libertarian communists, the green
>anarchists, the antisystemic Marxists, the squats, the social centers and
>all anti-hierarchical collectives from any lineage of the modern libertarian
>thinking -action to present their work, express their ideas , and come to
>public dialogue with the other collectives and the global society. This is
>an open invitation for all the creative political and cultural affinity
>groups and personal initiatives to participate in the construction of the
>zone and the formation of the social and political agenda. You can send your
>propositions to take part in the general program of the festival until 15th
>of March.
>
>We would like to let you know that this congregation will give us the
>opportunity to create an antiauthoritarian autonomous zone and express our
>ideas in a friendly environment. It is also provided the ability to each
>collective to organize and decorate its own space, prepare and present its
>own lectures or documentary shows and participate to the general assemblies
>and forums.

>We announce below the thematic issues of the assemblies and the forums and
>we wait from you the expansion and the enrichment of this catalogue with
