Femstreik Bern

Founded in 2018, Femstreik Bern is a community organisation based in Bern, Switzerland working on gender equality, lgbtq+, human rights.

Femstreik Bern is a self-organised feminist collective in Bern, Switzerland. It organises the annual feminist strike day on 14 June, including demonstrations, decentralised actions and a programme on Bundesplatz, and campaigns politically for gender equality and the rights of women, intersex, non-binary, trans and agender (FLINTA) people. It also campaigns against sexism, queerphobia, racism, ableism and social inequality. The collective is not affiliated with any party, union or existing group, works without hierarchies on a participatory and grassroots-democratic basis, and meets monthly. Working groups cover areas such as politics, mobilisation, communication, migration and merchandise. It is funded by donations and merchandise sales, with merchandise proceeds going to its political work.
