Love, Nubia It is a very good idea, Nubia! www.gcadp.org is the German Coalition to Abolish Death penalty. Other than that, there are ALIVE, www.ecadp.org and many other organisatations here in Europe. However, we don't have anything like the size and support as CCADP. That is a fact. Love, Turid |

Hi Nubia, Germany has a gcadp website......check it out...!!!!! Always Mo-DAWG Forgot to say: I was working as the Norwegian section of ECADP for about 2 years. Sadly, it split up, and now there are two sections. What's left of ECADP and ALIVE. Love, Turid |

And as for the support - Canada is closer to the USA - I think that's one reason why... Love, Nubia |

actually; we started this group because we thought canada should have a voice in this issue when we saw that European groups were doing so and thought the same should happen here. It would be great if people can make CCADP pages in their language - for example if the main page; student page; some prisoner pages could be translated that would be great. We get tons of hits from all over the world every day here - the vast majrity are not Canadians so this is your board too and a great way to reach and connect with fellow European anti death penalty activists. we need you all here ! |

Just contact them, Nubia! I'm sure they'll be happy to hear from you. BTW: Where do you live?
Actually, I wish I could have been a member of ALIVE, but that's mostly for German members, but you could of course ask. That is the most effective organisation I know of here in Europe. Other than that, we're in a sad state when it comes to anti-death penalty activism here in Europe. Particularly in Scandinavia.
I do think there are a few good ones in Italy though. The reason why I got in touch with these groups is probably because I've been involved with this for 8 years, and you do get to know people in that amount of time.
GOOD LUCK!
Love,
Turid

Hi Folks,
What I miss here in Europe, is co-operation. To have a CCADP in Europe too, is a little inconvenient, since we don't live in Canada, and Europe contents of so many different nations, with different cultures, veiws, politics, and different history.
But what about having CCADP as an umbrella, but still keep our own independency - what I am trying to say is that we need to make use of our own background... (was that very unclear???)
I'm happy to hear that you got the idea from the efforts done here in Europe, but fact is: There's hardly anything left of the co-operation.
Efforts have been made. I was in Amsterdam with some other country representatives of ECADP to sign the statutes etc., but it didn't work out for various reasons.
What I'm curious to know, is if there is anyone left willing to work with CCADP as a model - with the only difference that we put our own different cultures in it and present the stuff in our own languages.
The way you've done this, Tracy & Dave is simply wonderful - SO - Who would like to / are able to /make their own websites, presenting the stuff CCADP does?
I for one - am intersted in doing that, but I haven't seen much discussion here. What do the rest of you think? What can you do? Would Tracy & Dave help sharing of their own experiences and when needed - give advise from their own experiences?
If it shows to be others who are also interested in doing this in their own home countries, please share it here and let's discuss. It may be so that the differences in cultures, etc. makes it difficult, but if it's done wisely, it could be an asset?
Let's discuss this. I'm more than willing to do my share. Aside from the vareity in many cultural and political things, there is no reason why Europe and Canada shouldn't be working together on this. Particularly because of the Internet, which has made the world really small....
Also - what can each one of us do? Obviously, web work is needed, but we also need to share experiences and be able to act simultaneously and on the same issues.
I've been thinking about this for a while - since it was first posted, and I need your input on this. I'd be very interested in such a project, and using CCADP as a model.
What do you think?
Love,
Turid

I forgot to mention one important thing. Over the years, there have been A LOT of organisations working against death penalty. They come and go. I'm no longer intersted in working with a project that is on the planning stage one minute and the next, it's history. I have my own projects - like www.justicefornone.org and I'm also doing webpages for others. So if I should decide to do this again, it would have to be with an organisation which has proved itself over the years and not only on a day to day basis. I've lost count of all of the organisations I've been working with over the years. Love, Turid |

I think Turid's idea is great - and Turid we volunteer to help be the org that will stick around I think working together as abolitionist nations matters greatly - since we have CCADP members from literally around the world I would hate to see us split and fragment - lets work together; it would be great if others would make pages;have Eurocentric stuff as well... lets make this a STRONG international forum |

Great minds think alike!! I'll have the domain: www.ccadpnorway.com set up right away. I sure will add strenght to the entire idea of abolishing the death penalty and as I said - CCADP has been around since 1998, and have proven itself over and over again! Love, Turid |

The domain was available so I got it. It will take a few days before there's even a welcome message because it takes a few days with the DNS and all, but at least - www.ccadpnorway.com was just born!  Who's next? Love, Turid |
