„Women in Exile“ and all the „Refugee Organised Groups in Brandenburg“ and „Supporters“ are calling for a Demonstration to protest against Refugees being accommodated in Containers. The City Council of Potsdam will be making a ruling on Wednesday 19.06.2013 at 5pm on accommodation of Refugees in the City of Potsdam.
For the past three years, Potsdam was a model Heim on how the accommodation of refugees could be improved. Potsdam being the capital city of the Brandenburg state should be a good example to other districts.

Call in English, German and French:
