The Sustainable Cities and Act on Climate collectives are banding together to run a series of fortnightly workshops on organising skills, from May - August. This week's collective meeting will be the first of that series!

The Organising training series is for anyone interested in building their activist skills. It aims to build capacity in our collectives and broader movement.

Sign up to the series here for updates and resources after each session. Whether you're able to attend or not, you can receive the content from the workshops and stay in touch with any changes and communications on the topics of upskilling.

This week will be the fourth of the series - Storytelling & effective conversations (June 20th) 

What role do narratives play in movement building? The messages we use to communicate drive our campaigns, but we can also utilise our own story as a tool to organise. This workshop utilises formats of storytelling which connect our individual experience to our community. The interactions we have with people can move them to action if we approach the exchange with an awareness of how to best connect with people on issues.

May 9 - August 1 Organising Training Series

Every second week our meeting will be structured with a 1.5 hr workshop to build our community organising skills, include dinner and half an hour of "meeting" items. The other week of the fortnight will be usual programming of meeting 6pm-7:30 with dinner.

The training series is for anyone interested in building their activist skills and aims to build capacity in our collective and broader movement.
