//Social space Kaymakkin// (sometimes written as //Kaymakκιν//) is a social space located in the old Kaimakli neighbourhood of Nicosia. It initially opened as the hangout space of the [[en:groups:sispirosiatakton|Syspirosi Atakton]] group and subsequently developed its own autonomous assembly and management. As a space, it has hosted collective kitchens, screenings, public and closed discussions, as well as assemblies of various groups and initiatives.


===== Space Identity =====
<blockquote>Kaymakκιν, located in the old neighbourhood of Kaymakli*, is an attempt to create a common space, open to individuals and groups aiming for political, social, and cultural intervention. It is the outcome of the realisation of the need for a space where we can spread and exchange ideas, form networks and interact in Nicosia. It is a self-managed space, and its operation relies on self-organisation and collective action. Kaymakκιν is managed by an assembly of individuals and collectives through direct democratic and horizontal organisational structures and consensus decision-making processes. Against the dominant rationale of hierarchy and the exercise of power “from above”, against capitalism and neoliberalism, we organize outside a commercial framework and the logic of profit.(([[https://web.archive.org/web/20190114091114/https://kaymakkin.org/|Assembly of social space Kaymakkin]], Archived Website of Kaymakkin))</blockquote>
