In recent days, there have been many events with the aim of bringing activists and hackers together¹. The need seems to be great. Both from activists who are looking for technical support for their political work and from hackers who want to contribute their skills to the movement. At these meetings, there was also a desire to make this exchange more permanent. The Radical Engineers from the UK² provide inspiration for what this could look like. We invite you to a joint brainstorming session on what such a network/organization/platform could look like and want to take the first steps to advance the topic.
