Group A (Finnish: A-ryhmä) is an anti-authoritarian political group based in Helsinki that organizes demonstrations and political campaigns, among other things.[1][2] It is part of the Platform, a national anarchist organization in Finland, of which it was a founding member. The "task force" was set up over social media in 2006.[2][3]
The group has organized lectures, demonstrations and political campaigns, aiming to make anarchist action easily approachable.[4] It also offers food in a folk kitchen and publishes a magazine called Igniter.[1] The group has operated on the premises of the Student Union of the University of Helsinki. Many of its members are also students at the University of Helsinki.[4]
Well-known people who have worked in Group A include Antti Rautiainen and Suvi Auvinen.
