The event is part of the campaign “Pathway to Redemption” in order to establish General pardon for all “rejected asylum seekers and all immigrants residing in the Nederland for minimum of 5 years, including Ex-Dutch surinamese since their independence 1975 and Aged above 55 years old, been in limbo over 15 years”. We are now at a point in time where asylum seekers who get rejected are living without rights sometimes for decades long in the Netherlands. As the Dutch parliament has fallen, this is the time to push for a general pardon campaign to make sure the people who are living without rights and the ‘right’ documents in the Netherlands will get their status. During this program we will talk together with the Afrikaanse Vluchtelingen Collectief, politicians and grassroots organisations on how to make sure we can move together into action towards the nation wide demonstration on September 15th.
