In-Person Summit Day at the Conference Centre of the International Institute for Research and Education Amsterdam

Saturday, 1st February 2025

We are guests at the conference center of the International Institute for Research and Education (IIRE) providing activists and scholars worldwide with opportunities for research and education in three locations: Amsterdam, Islamabad and Manila.

Since 1982, when the Institute opened in Amsterdam, its main activity has been the organisation of courses. Their seminars and study groups deal with all subjects related to the emancipation of the world’s oppressed and exploited. It has welcomed hundreds of participants, most participants have come from developing countries. The IIRE has become a prominent centre for the development of critical thought and exchange between activists.
