Greta Thunberg fait déposer son slogan « Grève scolaire pour le climat »

Greta Thunberg a introduit un dossier pour faire déposer le slogan « Skolstrejk för klimatet » (Grève scolaire pour le climat en suédois) et sa version anglaise « Fridays for Future ». Son objectif est de protéger son mouvement et ses activités d’utilisations abusives, a-t-elle annoncé mercredi sur le réseau social Instagram.

La marque déposée s’appliquera également au nom de l’activiste suédoise, qui déplore que celui-ci soit parfois utilisé pour entrer en contact avec des personnalités de premier plan ou pour lever des fonds, et ce sans son consentement. L’adolescente de 17 ans estime nécessaire d’en arriver là pour se protéger également d’utilisations commerciales qui sont faites de sa démarche.

1.0Impostors, trademarks, commercial interests, royalties and foundation… First: Unfortunately there are still people who are trying to impersonate me or falsely claim that they « represent » me in order to communicate with high profile people, politicians, media, artists etc. Please be aware that this is happening and be extremely suspicious if you are contacted by ”me” or someone saying they ”represent” me.
I apologize to anyone who has been contacted – and even misled – by this kind of behavior.
Second: My name and the #FridaysForFuture movement are constantly being used for commercial purposes without any consent whatsoever. It happens for instance in marketing, selling of products and people collecting money in my and the movement’s name.
That is why I’ve applied to register my name, Fridays For Future, Skolstrejk för klimatet etc as trademarks. This action is to protect the movement and its activities. It is also needed to enable my pro bono legal help to take necessary action against people or corporations etc who are trying to use me and the movement in purposes not in line with what the movement stands for. I assure you, I and the other school strikers have absolutely no interests in trademarks. But unfortunately it needs to be done.
Fridays For Future is a global movement founded by me. It belongs to anyone taking part in it, above all the young people. It can – and must – not be used for individual or commercial purposes.

And third: together with my family I’m setting up a foundation. It’s already registered and existing, but it not is not yet up and running. This is strictly nonprofit of course and there are no interests in philanthropy. It is just something that is needed for handling money (book royalties, donations, prize money etc) in a completely transparent way. For instance, taxes have to be paid before we can give them away to specified purposes and charities. This takes a lot of time and work, and when the foundation is fully up and running I will tell you more.
The foundation’s aim will be to promote ecological, climatic and social sustainability as well as mental health.

« Fridays For Future est un mouvement global que j’ai créé. Il appartient à tous ceux qui y prennent part, et particulièrement aux jeunes. Il ne peut y être fait référence pour des motifs individuels ou commerciaux », souligne Greta Thunberg. Elle ajoute qu’elle a enregistré, avec sa famille, une fondation sans but lucratif afin de gérer l’argent provenant de livres, de donations ou de récompense « de manière complètement transparente ». Son objet est de « promouvoir la durabilité écologique, climatique et sociale, ainsi que la santé mentale ».
