Embassy of Concerned Citizens

The "Embassy of Concerned Citizens" was opened at Ballhausplatz, Vienna on February 9th, 2000. The everyday activities of the Embassy, a conspicuous white tent, are run by persons who do not feel represented by the new Austrian Government. The function of the Embassy is to represent all persons who have problems with, or because of, the new Government of the People's Party ÖVP and the Freedom Party FPÖ.
The
Embassy of Concerned Citizens serves as a focal point. It will confront decision-makers in Austria and other countries with any problems and suggestions it is approached with.
The Embassy of Concerned Citizens is a centre for persons who want to participate in political activities or simply express their protest. In addition the Embassy serves as a centre for networking activities.
The Embassy of Concerned Citizens calls upon everybody to act as an ambassador in his/her personal environment.
The Embassy of Concerned Citizens is a nonparty initiative and not affiliated with any particular organisation.
The Embassy of Concerned Citizens advocates further peaceful protest.
The Embassy of Concerned Citizens will be open as long as this Government is in office.
The Embassy of Concerned Citizens does not only exist in real life, at Ballhausplatz, but also on the Internet, at: http://www.botschaftbesorgterbuergerInnen.cjb.net/ 
You may also send an e-mail to: BotschaftbesorgterBuergerInnen@blackbox.net 

We call upon all interested citizens to come to the Embassy at Ballhausplatz, Vienna to express their concerns in a creative way (music, dance, theatre, satirical revue, painting, etc.).
