The 101 participants (from 39 movements and communities and 12 European countries) worked together on various aspects of “Munich 2016”: the Congress at the Circus Krone Bau (30 June to 1 July) and the public manifestation at Karlsplaz – Stachus (2 July)

You can find a general presentation of the event in the Brochure on this site.
