Feminist Grassroots Organising: Building Local and International Capacity and Solidarity
April 27 @ 11:30 am - 5:30 pm
Hard-right populism, here and abroad, is on the rise – alongside attacks against migrants, the LGBTQ+ community (especially our trans siblings), the disabled and vulnerable, and the working class. In this climate, it is increasingy important that we build networks of mutual support and practical strategies for change.
On 27 April, we will be coming together to discuss sustainable, long-lasting organising and share experiences of what strategies we can and have used to successfully fight imperial, patriarchal and fascist capitalism locally and globally.
We will hear from a range of speakers, followed by a practical workshop.
Come along if you are an experienced organiser who wants to learn from others, or if you are new to organising and want to know where to start!
