Talsvert hefur fjölgað í hópi þeirra sem eru heimilislausir í Reykjavík á síðustu misserum. Í erindinu fjallar Finnur G. Olguson um BS-verkefni sitt í landfræði við Háskóla Íslands, sem beindi sjónum að því hvernig heimilislausir tækjust á við aðstæður sínar og hvaða áhrif þær hefðu á ferðir þeirra í borgarlandslaginu, tengsl þeirra við mismunandi staði og daglega rútínu. Í verkefninu var rætt við þrjár manneskjur sem höfðu verið heimilislausar til lengri tíma og byggt á reynslu þeirra og upplifunum. Að auki verður velt upp ýmsum spurningum varðandi viðhorf samfélagsins til heimilisleysis, úrræði sem heimilislausum standa til boða og hvernig hægt sé að bæta þjónustu við þá.
Finnur G. Olguson útskrifaðist úr landfræði frá HÍ vorið 2017 og vinnur nú sem smiður. Hann hefur tvívegis áður flutt erindi við Róttæka sumarháskólann um náttúruvernd og loftslagsbreytingar.

Borgarbúskapur í þínu nágrenni // Urban farming in your vicinity
26. febrúar kl. 20 verða haldin erindi frá ræktendum í áberandi
matjurtagarðagörðum í Reykjavík. Vonandi gagnlegt fyrir þá sem hafa áhuga á að fræðast um skipulag og samvinnu á mismunandi stöðum og eins þá sem vildu taka þátt í núverandi verkefni.
Sérstaklega áhugavert væri að fá þá sem vilja fá innblástur að setja upp matjurtagarða í sínu hverfi. Ræktendur kynna reynslu sína og mögulega smita áhuga til annarra. Kostir þess að rækta grænmeti eru margir persónulega, ferskari og hollari matur, umhverfisvænni framleiðsla, heilbrigð útivera og að vera í samfélagi ræktenda og læra hvert af öðru.
Lilja Sigrún ræktandi í Laugargarði, er mikill hvatamaður innan
íbúatsamtaka Laugardals að auka áhuga á ræktun í hverfinu, en reynslu sína dregur hún fyrri árangursríkum grenndargörðum.
Guðný Rúnarsdóttir ræktandi í Seljagarð hefur prufað að rækta
ýmislegt, skemmtilegast fannst henni að sjá smátómata, kamillu,
sólblóm og gúrku vaxa í garðinum og það að vinna undir beru lofti og fara svo heim með uppskeruna.
Helga Helgadóttir ræktandi í Smálöndum við Stekkjarbakka nýtur
félagsskapsins við nágranna og friðsældarinnar við að rækta grænmeti með útsýn yfir Elliðaárdal.
Staðsetning er róttæka félagsrýmið Andrými við Bergþórugötu 20. Allir eru velkomnir og aðgangur frjáls. Andrými er nýflutt og því er aðgengi enn ábótavant fyrir hjólastóla. Erindin verða á íslensku en spurningar á öðru máli geta verið þýddar.
Vonum að sjá allt áhugafólk um borgarbúskap og ræktun grænmetis og mannlífs. Sigurður Unuson, formaður Seljagarðs er frumkvöðull að þessum fundi.
This will be a practice session for those interested in playing folk music. It’s aimed at those with some ability on their own acoustic instruments, but who don’t yet play traditional music or would like to learn more. We’ll usually mention a tune to prepare beforehand that we’ll go through together with someone who knows it well.
The event is only really accessible to those who can already play a little bit of music and have their own instrument (or can borrow one), but that should be the limit.
Andrými is unfortunately not currently wheelchair accessible.

From the Greek streets
Benefit night for anarchists in Greece.
This event is a benefit-event for anarchists arrested during the demonstration on the 6th of December 2017 in Greece.
Benefit dinner will be served followed by a short presentation and discussions about the 6th of December demonstrations and riots, the ongoing prisoners struggle in Greece and the meaning of revolutionary solidarity.
……..
6 December 2008, 15 years old Alexis Grigoropoulos is shot point blank by cops in the neighborhood of Exarchia in Athens. The murder sparked a string of riots that spread like wildfire all over Greece and inspired solidarity actions and riots in more than 70 cities around the world. These events are now known as the Desember revolt. Every year on the 6th of December people take to the streets to commemorate the murder and the uprising and to continue the struggle against the oppressive mechnism of the State and capital. During this day we fight and defend our neighborhoods and spaces of resistance, our self-organized projects, the ground where we live, meet and organize to fight back. Nine years after the December revolt people still face the same murdeous institutions that want to control our lives according to their desire for profit and social control.
During times of economic and political destabilization, known by some as crisis – another word for the restructuring of society in favour of the capital and the state-, there were many that had hoped for and thought that a Syriza led left-wing government would save them. As was pointed out before and has now been confirmed, the government of Syriza has only continued the violent impositions of social policies that aims for the continoues flow of capital profit. With a “soft” approach to repression, always hiding themselfes behind the police institution, it has stepped up its efforts to flatten the resistance of thouse who are fighting by upgrading its legal arsenal (new prison and penal codes), detentions and violent beating of demonstrators. Hope will not save us, neither a leftist government, or any government for that matter. There is only our struggle and the relationships we build that can bring us closer to our goals.
Noting is over,everything continous.
Eugene Imotu was deported to Nigeria and separated from his children last June, his family received the residence permit in Iceland two months later. He is now however asked to pay about 1.14 million Icelandic krona to the State (cost of his custody and detention by 4 police officers) before his case can be presented back to the immigration Office. A first event (a concert) was organized in January to start raising the money, the 24th of March we will organize a second fundraising event, family friendly, to help Eugene come back to his children. Come to have a good time at Andrými, there will be food and activities for the children.
The detailed program will be presented later.
This event will be vegan friendly.
Magda and Agnieshka are workers and active members of InicjatywaPracownicza (Workers’ Initiative) a syndicalist union in Poland.
They have been active in organizing, writing and direct actions for more then 10 years.
They want to speak about their strategies in Poland and exchange experiences and ideas over tea and coffee with worker activists in Iceland.
An informal introduction to the current Indigenous-led struggle to protect the waters and land in Mi’kma’ki (specifically the so-called Nova Scotia and New Brunswick) and Secwepemcul’ecw (so-called South-Central British Columbia) followed by discussion.
The talk will focus on the Mi’kmaq resistance against the Alton Gas salt cavern project on the Shubenacadie River, and the Secwepemc Tiny House Warriors protesting in similar way against the Kinder Morgan Trans Mountain Pipeline Project, together with very brief setting in the context of the history of Indigenous resistance in so-called Canada. Additional information will be available on site (texts in English).
Canada’s trying to preach reconciliation but in fact things are as dire as ever – Indigenous unceded land is being quietly sold to corporations such as Alton Gas and BP Canada; Indigenous women, girls, and two-spirit people still routinely go missing, and Indigenous lives are treated as disposable.
Let’s come together to remember Tina Fontaine, Loretta Saunders, Colten Boushie and many more & talk about action.
There’s no entrance, but we’ll try to collect some money to support the Mi’kmaq water protectors & the Treaty Camp (https://stopaltongas.wordpress.com/donate/) on Shubenacadie (please bring cash). The talk will take place in English.
Accessibility:
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), and the washrooms are so far only on the upper floor and in the basement. The door to the meeting room is 75 cm wide (as most other doors in the building).
Both washrooms in the building are gender neutral.
