Information event of the German No SLAPP Alliance on 16 November 2023 at the European House, Berlin

Strategic Lawsuit(s) Against Public Participation SLAPPs - This phenomenon is a form of legal abuse that seeks to suppress criticism through legal action. SLAPPs aim to intimidate critical voices and have a chilling effect on civil society discourse and the critical public sphere, in the interests of corporations, wealthy individuals and political actors.

In the face of an increase in SLAPPs in Germany, individuals and organisations from civil society have joined together to form the German No-SLAPP Alliance and have already intervened publicly on various occasions or provided support to those affected by SLAPPs. The German No-SLAPP Alliance is also part of the Coalition Against SLAPPs in Europe - CASE. In November, you will have the opportunity to learn more about SLAPPs and the German No-SLAPP Alliance and its members in Berlin.
