Well its taken a semester and a bit, but anti-prohibition campaigners at LaTrobe University will finally be holding our Inaugural General Meeting in order to
%) set our campaign goals
8) establish our name, constiution and office bearers so that we can affiliate to the SRC
meet each other and no doubt have a more informal long-lunch after the meeting closes
We have actually gathered together quite a collection of interested punters. While we will be focusing on anti-prohibition activism, i think there will naturally be a support function for drug users on campus.
My radio show Dissident Dance (on latrobe's subfm www.subfm.org - streaming online tuesday nights 22:00 -0:00) will act as a regular voice for the campaign
And although our focus will obviously initially be consolidating and expanding our work here at LaTrobe, i think it would be great to look at some victorian cross-campus collaborations for OWeek 2006; anyone from other campuses who are interested in exploring this should PM me.
While there have obviously been heaps of groups, orgs and campaigns opposing prohibition, these are often coupled with a whole range of community development priorities for users (VIVAIDS, Ravesafe etc), this will be Victoria's first user - initiated organisation with the specific goal of fighting against prohibition, so its quite an important step i reckon.
