FAC Research

FAC Research is a community-based research centre. Located in Αthens, a city at one epicentre of global, intersecting crises, we have a need to build spaces in which encounters can take place, and coalitions can flourish. Particularly for groups excluded from the hegemonic mappings of the city, the Centre offers a space to breathe, in the daily struggle against multiple forms of violence. By unleashing our collective capacities for creativity, resistance, and care, we can unlearn the dominant ideologies that we have internalised and produce new knowledges. The Centre is open to groups and individuals who want to come together, exchange ideas, generate projects, to understand and transform our collective realities. We seek to establish collaborations against borders with collectives, organisations, individuals, and cοmmunities in struggle. We see ourselves as part of an emergent global movement against heteropatriarchy, racial capitalism, neocolonialism, and ecological genocide. We seek to forge coalitions across and against borders for self-determination: in unity we rise!
