The traveling traders were back on the Traunsee in 2016 with the ship St. Nikolaus. This year, the speakers gave their keynote speeches on the topic of "boundless knowledge". Brigitte Buchhammer spoke about "Human images as a challenge for feminist philosophy", Sára Bereczki spoke about "Game-theoretical consideration of economic logic". Tania Araujo and Marissa Lôbo spoke about "Philosophizing Queerfeminist - away from hegemonic discourses".

FIFTITU% organized this cruise for the fifth time.

"Anyone can take a vacation. But a break from the system, how nice would that be? Let's try it together for a weekend. The Feminism and Riot Camp (f.u.k.c.) offers you a short trip to the good life: Come to the queer-feminist training camp!

We practise activism in the protest lab, we build strategies, we network with other collectives, we forge alliances. We offer: Rebellious clowns, catchy slogans for every demo, sleek stencils and nasty riots, respect-inducing self-defense and civil disobedience. In short: political beauty." This was the invitation from the transcultural women's political alliance Feminism and Riot to the camp of the same name.


From September 29 to October 2, 2016, the f.u.k.c. awaits you in the former HOSI House, Fabrikstraße 18 in Linz. Everyone is cordially invited to take part in the various workshops!

NEWS "5-2 Minutes"- feminist news

Austria's women's national team has qualified for a major event for the first time. The ÖFB women fought out a 0-0 draw in Wales in the final match of European Championship qualifying Group 8 to secure a place at Euro 2017 in the Netherlands.

Menstruation is rarely talked about in public and advertising usually depicts the blood in light blue. Many female athletes are breaking the silence. At the Olympic Games in Rio, Fu Yuanhui from China narrowly missed out on a medal in fourth place in the 100-meter medley relay. The 20-year-old had previously won bronze in the 100-meter backstroke. She explained her performance in the relay with menstruation: "I got my period yesterday and felt very tired." This explanation caused a stir not only in China, but worldwide. Fu Yuanhui received praise online for being honest and addressing the taboo subject of menstruation.
