Every Wednesday at 17:30 – 19:00 we are getting together to teach English to people of different backgrounds.
Our goal is to provide people with the communication skills useful in everyday situations and in accordance with their needs.
Refugees, asylum seekers and anyone who would like to participate – you are all welcome!

One of us – a native speaker – has offered to teach via Skype – so get in touch if you are interested!
Andrými is at Bergþórugata 20.
(The entrance is by Vitastígur)
The building is currently not wheelchair accessible, unfortunately, but it is our top priority to make it so. An architect is already working on drawing a ramp and making an accessible bathroom in the space.
There is a step before the garden gate and then 5 steps leading to the main entrance, each 17 cm high, door widths in the building vary between 50 cm (upstairs washroom door) and 80 cm (entrance door). The door to the meeting room is 75 cm wide (as most other doors in the building).
The washrooms are so far only on the upper floor and in the basement.
Both washrooms in the building are gender neutral.
Jamey Ellis would like to promote veganism as a synonym of compassion.
Join him for an open dialogue where he will introduce holistic veganism and it’s intersectionality with numerous other topics like humanitarianism, classism, sexism, racism, feminism, environmentalism, speciesism, and much more.
The goal of the night is not to convert people into veganism. It will be to provoke thoughts around ahimsa (non-violence) and compassion and having integrity in whatever it is you believe in.
Jamey defines holistic veganism as the practice of care for all living beings and their home environments, through the lenses of inter-being and intersectionality, with veganism as tool and philosophy that illustrates their actuality.
He has been vegan for 16 years and practices gift economy, unschooling, non-competition, sustainable consumerism and living, personal zero waste management, and other philosophical and practical tools to pursue and promote ahimsa towards each other and the planet.
The evening will begin with the dialogue at 6pm. At 8pm we will enjoy a vegan potluck. Bring your favorite dish to share and inspire others. If you can not come for the talk, then just come for the dinner.
This event is free, open to all people, and will be in English.
Private workshop for vegan activists pre-registered by AVO.
