André Fürst, owner of Chanvre-Info, together with the European Coalition for Just and Effective Drug Policies (ENCOD) invite all activists for a global reform of drug policies to participate in a cultural and political camping retreat. This Summer University on the Freedom to Farm will bring together representatives of the European drug policy reform movement to discuss our collective efforts related to the coming meeting of the UN Commission on Narcotic Drugs in Vienna, in March 2008. It will also be an expression of our concern with regards to the 29 month prison sentence of André Fürst, owner of Chanvre-Info, for the production of hemp products. The location offers free camping to participants, free use of facilities including Internet, kitchen and bathroom. The only thing that people need to bring is good will and spirit, a tent, a camping bed and a sleeping bag. Murten is located along the highway Bern - Lausanne, approximately 70 kilometers south of Bern. There are regular train services to the stations of Bern, Neuchatel and Fribourg. The closest airport is Bern. Cheapest airfares can be obtained for Basel and Geneva.
