Report on the eviction of ADM Free-space (Vrijplaats) community in Amsterdam

ADM is one of the very last remaining free-spaces (vrijplaatsen) that historically comprised Amsterdam’s urban character since the 1970s. The community follows very unique lifestyles and operates, socially, culturally, economically and politically in distinctively different ways than the mainstream population of the city. These distinct ways of life are tied with the specific place where they are located and thus an eviction will lead to displacement with potentially very significant negative consequences for the community.
