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.

Andrými’s kitchen needs volunteers, and the meeting is all about explaining what the kitchen consists of, and what tasks can anyone do to help it happening.
It will also be the time to set the next month timetable, so we can have in advance a set of people for the next tasks.
It is open to anyone who is simply curious, would like to help a bit, or a lot!
We meet up on Tuesday at 17.00 at Bergþórugata 20.
At the moment Andrými is not wheelchair accessible, but we are in a process of making it so. There is 7 stairs leading to the main entrance and the toilets are only on the upper floor and in the basement. It hopefully changes soon.
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.
…but what do you mean by “the Other”? i’d hear it frequently after gigs and performances; “that surely was something e l s e”. oh, was it? that’s like one ideal casual commentary. it doesn’t even imply neither negativity nor positivity. and yet, when we contact with an object from which we differ, it’s hardly ever neutral. but not in an easy dichotomic way – it’s tricky to decode. which assumptions were quick, which were not rooted in our own preferences? one can easily fall for hatred or fetishization of the Other. capitalist society made us all dive unconsciously into the perils of individualism early at our lives, where we swirl around neglecting and embracing our unclear otherness.
it needs contemplation and critique. self-critique, perhaps? that’s what on our (?) minds.
the music this night will be provided by Kinga Kozłowska (aka Teenage Lightning), Szymon Keler and Miłosz Cirocki (aka Niemy Dotyk). we will be playing collage DJ sets about our understanding of the notion of the Other. the political frame is obvious – we’re all Poles, semi-proud leaders of immigration, with basic Icelandic skills, and we are asking ourselves, how do we perceive our otherness here? but the metaphorical sense remains open to interpretation, and that’s what we invite you to.
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.
The group is for sexual assault and violence survivors to come together and share their thoughts, feelings, and stories in a completely anonymous setting free of judgment. We aim to give survivors a safe space where they can talk freely.
We will have a trigger warning discussion before every event for people with trauma.
The event is open for survivors of all genders & sexualities.
