Action for Change through Community Organising
The North West London Social Action Hub are running Action for Change through Community Organising for people in their local area.
On this course you will get to grips with how people come together to take action through community organising, learning about the different types of action you can take to build power and effect change.
This one-day course will explore how you can make change for good through collective action.
You will explore the different types of action you can take, from DIY action to campaigning, explore stories of action and success factors and learn how to develop a strategy for change based on listening, building people power and leadership and picking tactics and methods for action.
You will explore:
- what motivates people to take action in their community
- the purpose of action in community organising and different approaches
- developing a strategy for action
- developing a power map
- facilitating and leading collective action
- reflecting on action
The course also provides a reminder of the basics of community organising which are covered in our Introduction to Community Organising course. If you haven’t been on our Introduction course, we would encourage you to do this before signing up to the Action course.
The NWL Social Action Hub is a partnership between Our Yard at Clitterhouse Farm & the Stonegrove Community Trust their aim is to embed the principles and practice of Community Organising across North West London.
