Wir möchten den Kongress zum Anlass nehmen, die internationale Leihladen-Gemeinschaft zu versammeln, um Ideen und Erfahrungen der Aktiven auszutauschen. Während der letzten Jahre haben immer mehr Leihläden eröffnet. Wir denken, dass es an der Zeit ist, uns (weiter) kennen- und von einander zu lernen!
Da wir uns gegenseitig inspirieren und helfen können, laden wir zum offenen Austausch beim gemeinsamen Frühstück ein und möchten zu folgenden beiden Themenblöcken arbeiten:
Dinge: Organisation, praktische, technische und finanzielle Fragen
In this workshop, together with the participants knowledge and expertise, we aim to explore the topics of global production, swap economy, neighbourhood work, skill sharing and value of every day materials, products and peoples work. Through the example of the Kulturlabor Trial&error eV Swap Shop in Neukölln, the challenges and opportunities of the functioning models of swap economy at the4 local level will be analysed.

Small-holding farming and gardens have something in common: they feed their people. They are a self-providing or subsistance economy, but the surplus will be sold on the market to earn money. School gardens offer the children the possibility to learn in the nature, in the fresh air and working with their own hands, feeling the soil, smelling the plants. They learn how to collect water, care for the seed and the compost, in order to farm ecologically. Urban agriculture, community gardens are mostly run by groups or cooperations.
