FRIEDA (FRiedensInitiativeEinigerDesyAner, Peace Initiative of DESY employees)

Many years ago, a peace group at DESY was created, called FRIEDA (from FRiedensInitiative Einiger DesyAner).

This group co-orgnaized peace events in Hamburg, together with HANAWI (HAmburger NAturWissenschaftler*innen Initiative) and co-organized the signature campaign against a particiaption of DESY within the SDI project (see here).

Not many of the original events and activities are available online:
