Right to Stay for All!

bilder/bleiberecht_logo.gifThe changes in the new revision of the Asylum Law and the new Foreigner Law have worsened the situation of migrants and refugees living in Switzerland. The campaign „Right to Stay for All“ unites organizations fighting for the regularization of undocumented migrants and rejected asylum seekers.

The goals of the campaign are:

  • To publicize the topic of a right to stay and strengthen our demand for a sustainable and responsible regularlization of refugees and undocumented migrants living here.
  • To cast off defensive attitudes and actively call for an alternative migration policy.
  • To motivate refugees and undocumented migrants to organize among themselves and actively demand their rights!

  • Demonstration on 13 September 2008 in Bern
  • "Campaign weeks" of Somalis in Bern, 18 August to 6 September 2008
