“UNITED We Can Do It!
Civil Society Against Right-Wing Extremism”
UNITED Conference in Sheffield (GB) in English language
organised by UNITED for Intercultural Action
The challenge for a multicultural Europe, in holding back right-wing extremism and at the same time building the capacity of minority communities in Europe through its civil society, will be at the heart of this forthcoming conference. In order to create solutions to these challenges, European civil society needs to analyse these issues together and more importantly, develop, share and disseminate good practice.
The conference will bring together young activists from all over Europe to look at the point of intersection between minority rights and the far right. Aim of the conference is to strengthen the capacity of grass-root organisations to spot, counteract and prevent manifestations of right-wing extremism, racism, intolerance and discrimination as well as to promote equal rights for migrants and refugees...

"International Refugee Day 2009"
On 4th of December 2001 the UN General Assembly Resolution proclaimed 20th of June as the World Refugee Day. In occasion of this date various activities (demonstrations, conferences, festivals and exhibitions) in support of refugees will take place all over Europe.
Since several years UNITED has co-ordinated an international refugee campaign where the main issues empahasized are:
* Denouncing the European policies in matter of asylum and immigration that are more and more restrictive, as a result of which UNITED documented 11.105 death cases of refugees and asylum seekers who had died at Europe's border, inside detention and deportation camps all over Europe,
* Promoting a society where migrants and asylum seekers have not to face racism and discrimination,
* Showing Refugees not as victims of circumstances but as talented individuals who are contributing to the cultural enrichment and the diversity of society.
UNITED calls upon organisations to contribute to this awareness raising campaign. Keep the secretariat informed about your activities. For further information visit the Refugee Campaign Site www.unitedagainstracism.org/pages/camprfc.htm

"UNITED We Build The Future! Empowering Civil Society To Face New Challenges"
UNITED Conference in Kiev (UA) in English language
organised by UNITED for Intercultural Action
Nowadays the rhetoric and arguments of the far right are taking over mainstream political discussions and it seems that the anti-discrimination movement is firmly stuck in observer mode, responding to that what is put on the table by the far right and right-wing populists - but where are the progressive actions of civil society?
- It is time for the anti-discrimination movement in Europe and worldwide - to rethink what are its aims & tasks and what are the tools & possibilities in this very challenging struggle.
- It is time to evaluate our work and take into consideration all our good practices, but also our failures.
- It is time to discuss and rethink our working methods and strategies.
The conference forms an exchange platform and professional working environment to discuss the future of the European anti-discrimination movement; to analyse new challenges; to share experience, know-how and good practice; and to develop new strategies and working methods..
