In January 2023, various feminist collectives, workers unions, individuals and residents from Kolonos area in Athens, formed a Solidarity Committee dedicated to fighting for justice and accountability within society and to support economically, psychologically and by any other possible means the 12-year-old Kolonos native, survivor of child rape and trafficking and her family.
Anastasia Diavasti, artist and founder of NTIZEZA, an intersectional feminist platform in Athens, will be in discussion with local educator, Tatiana Chalikia, based on NTIZEZA’s M.O., such as locality, cooperation, relationship building and urgency and their intertwined activisms as members of the Solidarity Committee. In an open discussion, we will together map out feminist tools and methods of solidarity and cooperation that can be used not only in urgent cases like this, but whenever individuals and collectives of different backgrounds are called to collaborate with each other.
