RONDEWU 2025 - 10th ANNIVERSARY EDITION !
9 to 16 August 2025 in Salecina
A week for politically interested and/or active people from across Europe to exchange strategies, find common joy and gather strength to keep fighting for a desirable world.
RONDEWU is a self-organized annual gathering in themountains connecting feminists, writers, artists, activists, anti-racists, anarchists, anti-capitalists, workers, students, living breathing human beings of all ages and genders. This has now been happening for 10 years and we are thrilled to announce Rondewu 2025 – Anniversary Edition. This year, we invite you to join our one-week long celebration of solidarity, community building and activist joy. In times of drastic increase of right-wing politics, wars and escalating global climate and biodiversity crises, we are struggling to keep motivation for building the world we want to live in. Activism turns out to be a marathon, not a sprint. All the more we need each other´s support in order to stay resistant and resilient. We want to exchange ideas and practices of anti-capitalistic organisation, resistance and network. To build up alternative narratives for our present and future. To offer each other the joy of kinship and community. This is why the 10th-Anniversary edition of Rondewu will be a space for exchange & celebration of what keeps us moving. As in previous years, we are creating a week of self-organisation. We share our knowledge and skills, spend time together in the mountains and meet up for workshops. We enjoy balancing between planned and spontaneous activities. As always, Rondewu will take place in Salecina, a self-organized place for holidays and workshops in the special and beautiful region of Bergell in the Swiss Alps. For this year’s edition we invite you to bring any interest, knowledge or skill you would like to add to the free-floating Rondewu toolbox. How to maintain activist capacity and motivation on a long run? What practices of self-care and rituals of celebration can be supporting on this path? How to find “partners in crime”? How to bring humour and lightness into our resistance routine and how they can strengthen it? Does this sound inviting to you? Then feel warmly invited to register! See registration infos below :)
DIY Please be aware that Rondewu is DIY, we want to self-educate ourselves. We create a space where you can exchange ideas and experiences, and create a network with like-minded people across borders. As an orga-team we plan to propose a couple of workshops, two hikes and a party, but we warmly invite you to offer a workshop yourself or bring anything you would like to share with the others. While you are welcome to take time for yourself when needed, we ask people to try and participate in the group activities throughout the whole week.
AWARENESS We try to make Rondewu a safer space, which is why we ask you to participate in awareness raising and to respect your own and others’ limits. We do not tolerate any racist, sexist or other discriminatory behavior. Salecina is unfortunately not barrier free. In case money is an issue, there is the possibility to apply for funding. Please contact us for any special needs you might have! Read more on accessibility here.
