FIGHTING FOR THE FUTURE: YOUTH ORGANIZING FOR CLIMATE JUSTICE - SESSION 2: BUILDING YOUTH POWER: TACTICS TO WIN
February 17, 2022 from 7:00 - 8:00 PM ET (4:00-5:00 PM PT)

So you have a vision for your community... But how do you get started? And what does it take to make a meaningful change? This session digs into the strategies and tactics that young people have used to build power, from relational organizing and direct action to political pressure. Youth organizers from across B.C. will share their own organizing stories, and how they moved from identifying a problem to building a campaign to mobilizing tactics to make change – as well as their insights on how adults and adult-led groups can best support youth movements. Join us for insights on 'doing the work' to win a better world, and the tools, tricks, and supports that have led young activists to success.

  • Alexandra Woodsworth (host)
