Kein Mensch Ist Illegal


An international network of local immigrant and refugee rights advocacy groups

Initiator(s)

Florian Schneider

Description

The project is an international network of local immigrant and refugee rights advocacy groups. What began as a conference on June 28, 1997, developed into a national campaign. More than thirty anti-racist groups present at the conference issued an appeal for greater attention to migrant workers' rights, such as healthcare, education, and housing for migrant workers. Schneider's subsequently initiated several projects in the same vein, like the "no border network" and the online platform KEIN.ORG.
