| 背景 |
This years NATO summit will be held in the so called ´City of Peace´ , The Hague, NL. Secretary-general Rutte recently stated that ´we´ must prepare for war and should seriously invest in defense. This must have been the finest music in the ears of the arms (trade) industry. The EU follows as well. A coalition of peace-organizations in the Netherlands, together with the international No-to-NATO coalition decided to organize a counter-summit at June 21+22 just before the NATO-summit. We are going to prepare for peace and the first aim will be dismantling the NATO... VIA-NL jumped in as well and will support the summit (aim: 250 participants) and the demonstration (aim: 1000 part) with a logistical-support camp. |
| 仕事内容 |
Before the counter-summit the volunteers will paint banners and prepare creative action-formats for the weekend. They also prepare the venue and the cooking, disseminate flyers/posters and carry-out other last-minute publicity work; among others possible involvement in writing international press-releases. During the weekend they will carry out the creative actions. At the summit itself they will be guardians of the venue and its halls. Other tasks will be helping with preparing and serving the meals and coffee/tea, supporting the info-counter, setting and re-setting chairs and tables, cleaning etc. At the large demonstration tasks will be: building up/dismantling the stage and being stewards, together with others (safe-guarding the demo) etc. |

| 企画 |
The study theme will mainly take place before the counter-summit weekend and consists of a variety of workshops and part-themes: new security-thinking, the NATO-war strategy and responses to that, arms-trade, directions for the peace-movement and of course the role of SCI in that spectrum. Next to that there will be much attention for the role of art in establishing peace and promoting demilitarization: creative writing, music, dance etc. |

Volunteers must be motivated and comfortable with being part of a community project that works with children, young people, the elderly, and people in situations of social and economic vulnerability. The organization is open to receiving ideas for activities to develop, so volunteers can propose activities they would like to promote, taking into account their skills. |
| 備考 |
The counter-summit will be BEFORE the NATO-summit. volunteers will be mainly carrying out logistical tasks. there might be repression by the local police. Not likely, but one never knows and volunteers should be aware of it! |

| 企画者・参加者の声 |
「モンゴル」に憧れて参加。期待を裏切らない大自然。野菜の収穫は楽しかったけど、建設と水やりは少し寂しかった…不慣れながらも大人数の食事を準備したこと、みんなで文句を言いながらもやかんでお湯を沸かしてシャワーを浴びたこと、寒い中で星を見たこと、ささいな瞬間全てが「非日常」だった（経験者談）。 |
