The grassroots initiative comes from Saturdays for future, Climate Action and local Fridays for future associations across the country. The initiators consider themselves aware that decision makers are deeply involved in the ongoing corona pandemic and a strained economy. The shoe strikes want to contribute to a debate on how to design the economic crisis and support packages.

Hear Krister Stål from Fridays for future Karlstad tell us more in the clip above.

In order to respect the authorities' recommendations, the initiators urge participants to carry out the shoe strike alone or together with others, a maximum of 6-8 people per site.
