Packing List

Please, check the weather forecast before you travel and adapt your packing list accordingly:

  • Sturdy shoes
  • Tough, warm, old clothes that may get dirty and are warm enough for the night
  • Rain jacket/cloths and pants
  • Scarf and hat (always practical because they are easier to transport than an extra pullover)
  • A piece of cloth/scarf (useful for many purposes). Bring your keffiyeh
  • Food to keep you on your feet for up to 12 hours
  • Re-fillable water bottles
  • Identity papers for travelling
  • A small amount of cash money
  • First aid kit for smaller injuries
  • Rescue/thermal blanket (the gold/silver ones) – good against the cold or heat
  • An amount of any medicine you need to take regularly that is sufficient for the period you intend to stay at the camp and beyond
  • Sleeping mat, that can potentially get dirty
  • Flashlight
  • Tarpaulins to protect you against cold and rain
  • Banners with political messages (we will provide stuff to make banners at the camp)
  • Earplugs
  • Sleeping mask
  • tent
  • sleeping bag
  • sleeping mat
  • warm clothes for the night
  • personal items (eg. toiletries, towel)
  • Please bring only biodegradable soap/shampoo/toothpaste…




WHAT NOT TO BRING TO THE CAMP

(leave at home or in the camp/at your hosts)

  • Anything that could be considered a weapon, like umbrellas with a pointy top
  • For the (unlikely) event that police will resort to using pepper spray or tear gas, it is better not to put on make up or lotions with a high content of fat; for the same reason; it is better not to wear contact lenses
  • Camera (there will be enough photographers)
  • And of course, drugs (including alcohol)
