Networking and self-organisation are the key to improving the position of migrants in
Slovenia, which is far from perfect at the moment. Informal networks of civilians are
most effective in articulating interests, performing initiatives, addressing competent
authorities and bringing attention to burning issues. The weak position of migrants
in Slovenia is in large measure due to their dispersion and lack of proper self-organisation,
whereas it should be once again emphasised that there are real chances
of improving conditions of work and residence in Slovenia. Improvement, however,
comes only with joining forces and demands not only networking, but also taking
sincere interest in one another. So, do not wait for someone else to do something
on your behalf. Only you alone, acting as part of a self-organised group, can most
efficiently represent your own interests. The Rhizome Collective will offer you space,
support, advice and all resources available along the way. We shall walk next to you,
but not instead of you.
Let the Rizomalnica Counselling Office know what type of networking events,
interventions, seminars, workshops and activities you would be interested
in attending! We will try to bring your interests and needs to life, whereas it
is up to you to try and self-organise. Only in this way shall we succeed in forming
our own place amid the “foreign” one while opening the door to a more
tolerant and socially just coexistence.
Don’t wait, don’t hesitate, don’t be afraid –
self-organise and react!
