SIAN (Stichting Inclusive Action North) is an alliance of anti-racist, anti-capitalist, anti-ableist, queer and feminist organizations in the Northern Netherlands. As such, all members commit to the dismantling of ableism, anti-queerness, racism, capitalism and cis-sexism on all levels of society.
SIAN was founded 2019 in Groningen with the aim to connect local social justice spaces and groups and further collaborations as well as joint activist efforts. The groups that make up our Stichting are Queer Pride Groningen (QPG), the Groningen Feminist Network (GFN), Black Ladies of Groningen (BLOG) and asterisk, an action group for trans* and intersex activism.
We aim to hold each other accountable for adhering to our principles and to support each other in our political, social and cultural efforts. For a detailed overview on our structure and principles, please consult our house rules.
