Lesbian Feminist University (LFU) is an initiative set up in March 2010 as an autonomous space of educational, theoretic and artistic practices and actions for lesbians and women* interested in lesbian feminism, antifascism and anticapitalism. The name “University” is meant to be ironic, as study methods are based on the principles of self-organization, autonomy, active participation and democratic decision-making of all the participants.
LFU meetings take place at club Tiffany (ŠKUC – Cultural centre Q) at ACC (Autonomous Cultural Centre) Metelkova and at Afkors (Anarchist-Queer-Feminist Space) at Autonomous Factory Rog, and at other places in Metelkova and at Rog. We believe in the inalienable right to women*-only spaces and wish to provide a safe and, above all, free environment for women* and the development of the participants’ own thoughts. Thus, LFU meetings are open exclusively to lesbians, women, trans and non-binary persons. Blog posts are written by LFU members, making the media space open for a variety of opinions and the expressive power of each and every one of us.
Contact us by e-mail: lezfemuniverza(at)gmail.com, you can also find us on Mastodon, Facebook, Wikipedia and Goodreads.
