- to carry through freedom to grow and use marihuana for science purposes
- to support discussion about medical usage of marihuana
- to bring precise and objective informations about cannabis to the wide public
These points will be openly stated on the beginning of entire demonstration by the speaker of civic association Legalizace.cz, which dissociates from any political campaigns and anyones promises.
In final destination will be ready cannabis happening with three music stages, unique cannabis market, iteresting range of speakers, workshops, refreshment stands and leisure activities.
