Russian Anti-nuclear Action Camp 2008
Anti-nuclear Action Camp 2008 will be held from 11 to 21 of August. It will take place near the city of Nizhniy Novgorod (400 km east from Moscow).
The main topic of the camp is the plan of Russian government to build 36 new nuclear reactors. One of them is going to be build near the city of Nizhniy Novgorod. Another topic would be nuclear waste imports to Russia from Europe. Different workshops, seminars and public protest actions will be organized during the camp.
The camp is organized by Anti-Nuclear Movement of Nizhniy Novgorod, "Ecodefense!", Youth Human Rights Movement and GROZA (Green Alternative).
We want to invite participants from all over Europe. You will have a chance to take part in an effort to stop re-birth of nuclear energy in Russia. According to latest public polls 78% of Russian population is against new nuclear power plants. 62% of population in Nizhniy Novgorod region is against nuclear power plants to be built. This camp is an attempt to force government to listen to public opinion, especially on topics which can affect lives of public. We want you to share your experience with Russian green activists which will come to this camp from all over the country.
Unfortunately organizers are not able to cover your travel costs. We are not sure yet if their will be any participation fee for foreign participants, but even if their will be any, they will not be high in any case.
