B. Collective
Podlasie
Feminist Emergency Service: an urgent grant for providing security systems on the property where the collective is stationed.
About the group
The collective was established in autumn 2021 in response to the humanitarian crisis on the Polish-Belarusian border. Since then, the group’s base has been continuously operating as a place of support for people providing humanitarian aid. It creates a space particularly open to LGBTQIAP+ and non-cis-male persons who have been involved in border activities since their beginning.
About the action
The collective’s base serves people helping refugees at the border. Unfortunately, their safety has been compromised – far-right groups have made their address public, which has led to several dangerous situations. In response to these threats, the collective wants to implement a security protocol.
Grant amount: PLN 3,000
